Wayfinders

WHAT IS A WAYFINDER, AND WHERE CAN I FIND ONE?

Wayfinders are a dedicated team of Academic Support Experts consisting of University of Arizona staff and peers who assist students in navigating the various academic opportunities and policies at the university. Wayfinders help fill in the gaps that students may experience in determining their academic goals and provide additional academic advising support throughout their degree. Our team of academic experts help steer students through their college career by collaborating with campus partners and highlighting the many campus resources available. Wayfinders are accessible at the first floor of the Bartlett Academic Success Center Mondays and Wednesdays. Pop by with your questions for quick answers to your academic advising questions.

Information can include but is not limited to:

• Connecting with your Academic Advisor
• Answering general questions about University and academic policies, dates, and deadlines
• Utilizing campus resources
• Warm hand off to the correct next stop, if needed

NOTE: While Wayfinders are professional UArizona Academic Support Experts, in this role, they do not provide academic advising for specific programs. Students that have detailed questions regarding their degree’s academic requirements will be directed to their assigned Academic Advisor.
