The Rush Medical College Academic Advisor Program consists of specially selected faculty members for each class who provide counseling and guidance for cohorts of approximately fifteen students each throughout the four years of medical school. The advisors are informed of current policies, procedures and trends affecting students' participation in curricular and non-curricular aspects of medical school by the director of the academic advisor program, who is responsible for program planning, coordination, and evaluation. Advisors provide counseling in three interrelated areas: academic (regarding the acquisition of the knowledge and skills for becoming a competent physician), personal (regarding the growth and development of the person), and professional (regarding the selection of a career and graduate training program for which the individual is best suited).
