Advising is the Spice of Life
Our top-ranking advisor will help you craft an individualized course of study that will ensure you get the skills you need to build the career your want.
Your educational experience is personal, so we take your interests and goals into consideration as well as your co-curricular activities, work, and personal experiences. Your Film at Mason advisor will use all of this to guide discussions to help you realize your potential and be ready for real-world success upon graduation.
Academic advising helps plan educational goals and work to achieve them throughout a liberal arts education. With interests and goals in mind, academic advisors will help formulate academic plans.
