Advisor Resources

Welcome to your one-stop resource for advising.  The resources below were provided by the Campus Advising Committee and Student Central Advisors.  These resources are also available in Moodle in the Advisor Toolbox group.  If you do not see the Advisor Toolbox group on your Moodle dashboard, please contact Wendi Prater (wprater@mcneese.edu) and she can add you to the group.  Student Central advisors send advising announcements from the site as needed to all campus advisors, so to keep up with the latest information, please join this group.
