Welcome

Welcome to Nicholls State University, especially University College and the Department of University Studies.

As an entering freshman you are required to enroll in University Studies 101. UNIV 101 provides students with the tools necessary to understand the dynamics of higher education and to make a successful transition to college life. UNIV 101 provides a structure that helps coordinate student advising. As a student, you will be assigned a certified master advisor who will be available to guide and assist you until you enter your senior academic college.

The well being of our students is of utmost importance to us. Advisors in the Academic Advising Center are always available for students needing information or having questions.

I am confident that every student will profit from the kind of intensive attention provided to students by the members of the faculty in the Department of University Studies.
