At UB, we’re with you every step of the way, so you’ll find academic advisement and support at every point in your undergraduate career. We offer many services and resources to encourage your academic and personal success. These include advisement, tutoring, computer-use instruction, life workshops, our popular UB 101 course, and the vast resources of MyUB.
As an incoming student, you’ll be assigned an advisor before orientation to help you get on the right path. Many students continue to see the same advisor throughout their undergraduate careers—until graduation.
You and your advisor will discuss class choices, course assignments, academic requirements, available majors, and criteria for admission into special majors; and you’ll work together on other issues related to your coursework.
UB 101 is a one-credit course where incoming freshmen learn how to live, learn, and thrive at UB. Class topics include personal wellness, critical and creative thinking, reading and studying, use of computing resources, and more.
The Office of Student Affairs helps you to intensify your academic, cultural, and social experiences. You can celebrate diversity through the programs offered by the Intercultural and Diversity Center and enhance your leadership skills through workshops offered by the Leadership Development Center. Student Affairs also sponsors services to help disabled and non-traditional students get the academic support they deserve.
