It\u2019s as simple as that.<\/p>\n<p>But while pursuing her <a href=\"https:\/\/ecampus.oregonstate.edu\/online-degrees\/undergraduate\/nr\/\">natural resources bachelor\u2019s degree online<\/a> with Oregon State University Ecampus, quitting was never a real option.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because her advisor was with her every step of the way \u2014 helping Hatleberg to manage her academic plans, overcome obstacles and connect with a variety of student resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had a lot of self-discipline, but I wanted to do as much as I could and finish as soon as possible. Then I would get burned out,\u201d Hatleberg said. \u201cA lot of things changed once McKenzie Huber became my advisor. She helped me settle down and keep a good pace. She always told me that we\u2019d get through it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Did you notice that? \u201c<strong><em>We\u2019d<\/em><\/strong> get through it.\u201d Learning online with Oregon State isn\u2019t a solo journey because your student support staff extends throughout the OSU community.<\/p>\n<p>The one-on-one connection between student and advisor often creates meaningful working relationships. Just take a look at what Hatleberg\u2019s advisor wrote about her when she graduated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAshley is such a huge success story,\u201d wrote Huber, who is now Oregon State\u2019s baccalaureate core director. \u201cJust another true story of the adversity people have in their lives and how hard they work to earn their degrees. Crying a little thinking about her!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Academic advisors are immensely important to the overall student experience. Here are three of the many reasons why, based on insights from longtime Ecampus student success coach Bethany Ulman.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Academic advisors help set manageable expectations.<\/h3>\n<p>Your academic advisor will work with you to create a detailed, realistic plan so you can determine how much time and the financial investment your program will require. This helps keep students on track for graduation and, as was the case with Hatleberg, can prevent burnout from occurring.<\/p>\n<h3>2. They provide useful career guidance.<\/h3>\n<p>Many OSU Ecampus students have a career in mind when they enroll online, but finding the right combination of classes to get them the knowledge and skills they need sometimes requires an expert&#8217;s touch.<\/p>\n<p>Enter: academic advisors.<\/p>\n<p>Yours will help you determine which classes make the most sense for your career goals (and degree requirements) as well as how to get the most out of those courses \u2014 all the while providing additional career support.<\/p>\n<h3>3. They can help you tap into all the right resources.<\/h3>\n<p>The best advisors can hear what\u2019s in between what students share and help direct them to the resource that will have the most impact. Whether it&#8217;s petitions, academic resources, tutoring and everything in between, advisors can help you find what you need.<\/p>\n<p>Because online learners don\u2019t have the luxury of walking into a campus building and knocking on an office door, Oregon State\u2019s advisors will help bridge the physical distance by taking the time to understand your unique needs and doing what it takes to guide you along the road to success.<\/p>\n<p>To build your relationship with Oregon State, start the journey online today.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"rfi-button\" class=\"button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ecampus.oregonstate.edu\/contact\/form\">Request information<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\"><\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minute read<\/span><\/span>Without the constant support of her academic advisor, Ashley Hatleberg said she would have quit school.
