Academic Advising

BHSU’s academic advising model includes both professional and faculty advisors.

Professional Advisors in Spearfish support first and second-year students as they transition to college, helping them connect with resources on campus, solidify their goals, develop a graduation plan and develop meaningful relationships.

Faculty Advisors support main campus students in their third year and beyond. The faculty advisor serves as a mentor and further prepares students for their careers, helping them engage in research opportunities, pursue study abroad programs, secure internships, apply to graduate school, and more.
