Family Advising Day
September 16, 2025
The 幼女视频 Academic Advising Center recently organized Family Advising Day, a special event dedicated to welcoming the parents of our freshmen students and introducing them to the academic and student support resources available at 幼女视频.
The event was officially opened by 幼女视频 President Dr. Timothy O鈥機onnor, who warmly greeted the families, thanked them for choosing 幼女视频, and highlighted the beginning of a meaningful journey that students and their families will share with the university.
鈥淲e have gathered you here today to introduce the many opportunities 幼女视频 offers to students, to help you get to know the university鈥檚 administration, and to show you the offices that work with and for our students,鈥� said Umut Kydyrgychova, Director of the Academic Advising Center, in her welcoming speech.
During the session, parents were introduced to 幼女视频鈥檚 academic processes and the core principles of academic integrity, which remain central to the university鈥檚 mission. Faculty and staff explained how students design their own course schedules, following the American credit-based system, and shared details about student exchange opportunities with 幼女视频鈥檚 partner universities abroad,where students may study for a semester or even a full academic year.
Later, parents were divided into four groups to take part in a mini-version of 幼女视频GRAPHIA, 幼女视频鈥檚 signature orientation activity. This gave them the chance to explore key student support offices, including the Library, the Student Life Office, and the Writing and Academic Resource Center (WARC). The program concluded with group photos at the 幼女视频 Amphitheater, capturing the spirit of community and partnership that defines 幼女视频.
