Abstract
Students who enter their pre-University era such as foundation studies may find it difficult to adjust to their new lifestyle and environment. Added with possibly newer teaching-learning styles and approaches, it is pertinent to address this issue in view to ensure conducive teaching and learning experience at the foundation level before they head into their Undergraduate studies. It is proven in past studies that one of the figures who can help adjust to their new life is the academic advisors. This study seeks to gauge the role that academic advisors can play, as well as the impact of their initiatives in supporting the students’ teaching and learning processes during their time at the Centre for Foundation Studies (CFS), IIUM. This study employs a qualitative approach, whereby a survey to the students is conducted, as well as several focused group discussions with groups of students who went through academic advising initiatives. The respondents were chosen through a purposive-sampling method. For the results, it is found that academic advising initiatives, if done properly and exposed clearly to students, will have positive impacts on their experience in foundation studies. To conclude, this study can act as a platform to further enhance academic advising in institutions, especially ones where students have to adjust their lives such as in foundation studies centres.
