Academic Guidance is  an essential pillar of University education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia where regulations of Higher Education and the University of Qassim allocates an academic adviser for each student to assist him/her in matters related to the university regulations and his/her academic courses such as registration of the subjects. It is the student responsibility to know and follow the studying system and regulations including graduation requirements. The academic guidance aims to guide students to get the best academic results and smooth adaptation to the university environment and gain the opportunities available to them in the college and the university.
