Both The University of Texas and the College of Pharmacy have a special commitment to students to provide sound academic advising.
In order to meet that commitment, The University has developed a Mission Statement that serves to focus the many Advising Services available across campus.

All university students may use any of the following resources:

Graduate Students
Dr. Karen Rascati, the Graduate Adviser in the College of Pharmacy has overall responsibility for counseling and academic advising of graduate students in pharmaceutical sciences. However, each division within the College of Pharmacy appoints a Division Graduate Adviser, (DGA) who aids the students with course selection and programmatic progress. Each student must be advised by their DGA each semester before registering until they enter candidacy, to ensure the student is on track to graduate.
