Advising and Registration Help
Advising is a cornerstone of student success in the Family and Consumer Sciences Education program at the University of Central Arkansas. Each student receives individualized academic advising from faculty who are deeply invested in their growth and professional goals. Our advisors guide students through course selection, licensure requirements, field experience planning, and career preparation. We pride ourselves on creating a supportive environment where students feel known, encouraged, and confident as they progress through the program and prepare for impactful careers as educators. Mrs. Leila Dickinson is our Nutrition and Family Sciences advisor who is eager to assist you in planning your academic journey.
