AU Student Success Resources

Here at Albizu University, your success as a student is our number one priority. If you need assistance with anything or simply want to get the most out of your AU experience, contact these resources today!

Undergraduate Academic Advising
The Academic Advising department is composed of AU’s own full-time faculty members. These advisors assist students with registering for required coursework, considering a change or addition of a minor, tackling future career plans (such as applying to graduate school), deciding on the appropriate curricula for a desired career path, and enrolling in independent studies. Each student is assigned an advisor and is welcome to schedule an appointment through Ernesto Mendieta, the administrative contact.
