This is a big time of transition for you and your student! We want to make sure you’re aware of all the ways Biola can offer guidance and support.

1) Academic Advising: In your student’s first year, they will connect with their academic advisor to receive important information about course registration and degree requirements at Biola. From their advisor, they can also receive academic support and learn planning tools to make the most of the resources around them.

Meet Academic Advisors

2) Major Maps: Our major maps are designed around six central themes that line up with Biola's values - truth, transformation, and testimony. Organized by major, they offer your student guidance for how to maximize their Biola experience. Get a glimpse into key activities, courses, career paths and more that can help shape their education and college experience.

Here’s a bonus tip: Strategies for Academic and Personal Success is a ten-week course designed to help students learn test-taking strategies, strengths-based living, effective note-taking, time-management, critical thinking, and their learning style.

3) Career Center: Our Career Specialists and Peer Ambassadors help your student assess their interests, explore careers, build career skills and engage in the job search throughout any aspect of their career journey.
