The handbook is designed primarily to answer questions that may arise in advising new students as they try to decide which courses to take in their first semester or two. For example . . .  \n• If I want to go to medical school, what kinds of courses should I take my first-year student year?  \n• Where can I go to get help with Chemistry?  \n• After Gene Yuss has taken the Modern Languages placement exam, which course, if any, should he take?  \n• Mario Speedwagon thinks he has a learning disability. What support services does Wabash offer?)  \nMuch of the information in this handbook, however, is also applicable to advising students beyond the first year. It is common for students to change their academic plans, vocational focus, etc. during their time at Wabash. Information in this handbook can be a particularly useful point of reference for advising students as they make these transitions. As students progress through Wabash, their needs – and their needs from their advisors – take on new dimensions. At Wabash, advising is much more than helping students with course registration.  \nThis handbook has four sections and three appendices. The first two appendices were prepared by pre-health advisor Jill Rogers and are written for a student audience but maybe helpful for advisors’ reference as well. They are available for students to view on the pre-med page of our website. The third appendix of this handbook, written for an audience of advisors, provides a checklist for reference as advisors navigate meetings with advisees in their second, third, and fourth years at Wabash.  \nSection I – General Information  \nSection II –Academic, Career, and Wellness Support Services Section III-First Year Courses, Placements, and Credit by Exam  \nSection IV-Advising Pre-Engineering, Pre-Health, or Pre-Law Students Appendix A – Medical School Preparation and Admission Guide Appendix B – Dental School Preparation and Admission Guide Appendix C –Advising Checklist for Advising Students in their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Years at Wabash  \nTo use the handbook most effectively, you may want to skim through to see how it is put together and generally what kind of information it provides. During preliminary conversations with your advisees, if you identify students who are talking about pre-med or engineering, you should read these special program sections if you are not already familiar with them. Beyond this, you may want to review the Academic Bulletin to address questions about departments/majors/programs. Finally, there is also an advising resources webpage on the Wabash site, with advice for advising students at any stage of their Wabash career, which you may find helpful.  \nTABLE OF CONTENTS  \nINTRODUCTION .................................................................................................................. 1  \nAdditional Resources for New Student Advising .......................................................... 6  \nAcademic Centers for Excellence ..................................................................................... 7  \nThe Writing Center ............................................................................................................ 8  \nThe Quantitative Skills Center (QSC) ............................................................................. 8  \nSupplemental Instruction (SI) ......................................................................................... 8  \nThe Office of Student Enrichment (OSE) ....................................................................... 9  \nWabash College Counseling Center............................................................................... 11  \nSocial Work Intern........................................................................................................... 12  \nCareer Coaching......................................................","cbCaicCbo3WujAjF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicCbo3WujAjF","pdf",1129994,61,"English","# INTRODUCTION\n## Additional Resources for New Student Advising\n## Academic Centers for Excellence\n## The Writing Center\n## The Quantitative Skills Center (QSC)\n## Supplemental Instruction (SI)\n## The Office of Student Enrichment (OSE)\n## Wabash College Counseling Center\n## Social Work Intern\n## Career Coaching\n## Specialty Advising Areas\n## Events & Programming\n## Collaboration\n## Wabash Student Support Funds\n# Section III – Academics in the First Year\n## Academic Information\n## Basics of the Wabash Curriculum\n## Majors and Minors\n## Distribution Requirements\n## Placements\n## World Language and Classical Language Placements\n## What do these results mean?\n## English Composition Requirement and Placement in ENG-101\n## Mathematics Placement\n## Dual Credit","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Advisor’s Handbook 2026-27?\",\"answer\":\"The handbook provides basic information useful in the advising process and is designed to answer questions that arise when new students decide which courses to take.
