Advising – Alaska Pacific University

At APU, we value relationships and one-on-one connections. As an incoming student, you’ll be paired with a campus advisor. Once you declare a major, your faculty advisor will lead the way. Your advisor is here to provide growth, goals, and opportunities as you work toward your degree. Contact Advising whenever you need direction or advice toward your academic goals.

Let’s Meet Virtually

COVID has unfortunately changed how we meet and advise students. We would love to talk in person but, for the health and safety of the community, we are only meeting with students via video conferencing, email, or over the phone. We hope to connect with you soon!

Get On The Right Path

APU Advising counselors are ready to guide you through enrollment and all the way to graduation. Schedule a virtual meeting and we will support you on your path to and through APU!
