Meeting with my advisors and the center is an amazing experience because they are always there to answer any questions I have and have given me great advice. I truly feel that my advisors are always here to help and I should not hesitate to reach out to them. Whenever I leave an advisement meeting I always walk away with a feeling of confidence that my advisors are putting me on the right path to get to graduation. When I meet with my advisors there is no fear of being judged or dismissed, but I feel a warm, safe environment where I can get the best assistance for my academic career.&#8221;\u00a0 \u00a0<\/em>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u2013 New Brunswick Sophomore (\u201922)<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><em>&#8220;The new advising center is so welcoming, along with the staff, who always resolves any issues\/concerns I have on the spot.

After each appointment with my advisor or another staff member, the scheduling, class conflicts, or any other challenges I had run into were mitigated.
