Coordinated Care Advising

Mission

The Coordinated Care Advising model creates a supportive environment by providing proactive, holistic and individualized care for students that encourages and empowers their academic and personal success.

Coordinated Care Advising is an advising approach that supports and develops first-year and sophomore students by addressing academic, student life and wellness needs to foster their success at SDSU and beyond.

Coordinated Care Advisors* are dedicated staff members who are responsible for the advising and coaching of their first and second year student caseload to assist them in building the confidence and skills needed to thrive throughout their collegiate journey.

Coordinated Care Outreach is proactive, curated communication that supports the retention of our diverse student populations to increase their awareness and engagement with academic support and community opportunities.
