The Undergraduate Advising Resource Center serves as the hub for the Advising and Career Services Division at Portland State University. Academic advising is organized into seven Advising Pathways which group majors with similar academic and career paths, giving students the best opportunity to stay with the same advisor and pathway, even if they change their major. Students are assigned to an advisor who helps them to understand graduation requirements, create degree plans, and successfully achieve their educational goals. (Please note some Advising Pathways are served in other locations.)
