At The Citadel, advising is a partnership where the student takes the lead in shaping their academic, career, and life goals, with support from a team of dedicated advisors. Guided by our mission of Advising Tomorrow’s Principled Leaders, our campus-wide advising network helps foster success in and out of the classroom.
Primary Advisor
Faculty or professional staff advisors within each department provide guidance on course selection, career paths, and available support resources. Regular meetings are encouraged with designated planning sessions held each semester prior to registration.
Advising Facilitators
Advising Facilitators play a pivotal role in enhancing the advising experience for students and advisors. Serving as the school’s advising expert, they support student engagement and success, making sure advising is clear, consistent, and impactful.

TAC Officers
Each battalion and company TAC Officer (Teach, Advise, Coach), a retired or reserve military officer, supports cadets in leadership, discipline, and daily cadet life. They’re also here to advise and mentor student success, complementing advising in each of the schools.
Company and Battalion Advisor
Each company and battalion is assigned a faculty or staff member who mentors and coaches the unit’s academic officer and NCO in their mission to support the academic success of all cadets in their unit. Advisors also connect cadets with campus resources and assist in recognizing cadets who have earned honors for academic performance. Cadets should contact their academic officer or NCO for academic assistance in the barracks or to get contact information for their company or battalion advisor. For overall questions about the company advising program or to be referred to the appropriate unit, email Academic Affairs.
Office of Student Affairs
Professional advisors support students and advisors across campus. Students who may benefit from frequent advising, in-depth academic planning, SAP appeals, or access to additional resources are encouraged to connect early by contacting studentaffairs@citadel.edu.
