Academic Support Services
For academic support services, students should discuss their plans with their assigned advisor prior to seeking support from the Academic Resource Center.
Portfolio Review
A portfolio review is a one-hour mandatory meeting with the student's assigned prehealth advisor in preparation for applying to medical, dental, or veterinary school. Portfolio reviews are held in the spring semester for students who submitted their portfolios at the beginning of the term. At the portfolio review, the student and the advisor go over the student's internal application materials, drafts of personal statement and work and activities entries, and school list.
Appointment Procedures
Before making an appointment, students must have an active UNI and must either be currently enrolled or on leave from the School of General Studies. For general academic advising, students should make an appointment with their assigned academic advisor.
Newly-Admitted Students
Newly-admitted students in the Postbac Premed Program must select "New Student First Time Appointment" in order to schedule their first appointment with their academic advisor. Each subsequent general advising appointment should be scheduled using the "Academic Advising" appointment type.
Students must attend a Postbac Planning Session before scheduling an first-time advising appointment.
Appointment Availability
Students who seek academic advising appointments should note that appointments are listed only if they are available. If none are listed for a student's academic advisor and the student has an urgent or time-sensitive advising matter, the student should email the advisor requesting a meeting and providing suggested times.
Students who seek Academic Resource Center appointments or a portfolio review should note that these appointments may not be available year-round. If a category is missing on the list in the appointment system, this means that the type of appointment is not currently available.
