Advising
At Bennington you work closely with your faculty to design the content, structure, and sequence of your study and practice—your Plan. Through one-on-one sessions with your faculty advisor, group advising in First Year Forum, and structured meetings with your faculty Plan committee, your teachers serve as both mentors and guides. They help you discover how your intellectual interests and professional ambitions might shape an education of depth, breadth, and rigor. They guide your progress to ensure that your Plan is challenging, academically sound, and significant.
