As an international student, I found the Distance Education program at NC State challenging, but my adviser was an excellent match for me and I really felt connected. Once I became used to the rigor of the class work, the convenience of taking classes from home outweighed the challenges. I completed my degree, achieving my goals.

As an academic advisor, my task is to help students find their own path. It's not to impose choices or make decisions; students know themselves—their interests and capabilities—much better than I do. What advisors offer is knowledge of academic possibilities, assisting people to get from where they are now, academically and professionally, to where they hope to go.
