CYFS Program Advising

The Child, Youth, & Family Studies program is founded on a principle of ongoing developmental support for students and emerging professionals. Faculty have open-door policies and provide developmental advising (which includes academic, career, and other support) for students throughout their time in the major. Although students generally receive academic advising from the faculty associated with their specialization, you should feel free to develop your advising relationship based upon field of practice, personal connection, or some blend of the two.
