What students say“My advisor was more helpful and knowledgeable than I had dared to hope. He really made a huge difference in my experience.”
“My academic advisor was really helpful and organized!”
“I really enjoyed IntroDUCKtion. Before going, I was feeling really uncertain about college and if I would be able to handle everything and felt rather lost on where to start with the whole process of scheduling classes, or anything for that matter. IntroDUCKtion eased many of my worries and I’m glad that if I do need help, there are a lot of friendly people I can talk to to help clear up any problems. I feel a lot more confident about the whole idea of college now.”
- Quotes taken from IntroDUCKtion surveys, University of Oregon, 2009
