ACADEMIC PLANNING AND STUDENT SUPPORT  

 

AIU has academic planning services available to help students plan their degree program of study. Students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs can work with the University Registrar Department to assist them in designing a coherent degree plan based on degree requirements and any opportunities for assessment of prior learning within the program. The University Registrar Department primarily works with students during their first term at the University. During this time, the University Registrar Department will evaluate documents submitted for potential credit, advise students on other credit options they may be eligible for, and follow up on the submission of any required official documents. All questions regarding a student’s transfer credit and other credit options may be directed to the University Registrar Department. The Student Advisor is a resource to the student for the duration of their time at AIU and can assist with any issues a student might encounter. The assigned Student Advisor will work alongside the University Registrar Department to ensure that the student is well supported. Once the student has been scheduled into their program of study, the academic plan is available online under the "Academics" menu on the Virtual Campus. Utilizing the student user name and password given at entrance, students log into the Virtual Campus at http://mycampus.aiu-online.com. To view the academic plan, enter "Academics" and click on "Academic Plan." From this location, the complete student academic plan, schedule, and posted grades can be viewed online from anywhere at any time.
