CAS Standards for Academic Advising

CAS Standards for Academic Advising (AAP). The Council for the Advancement of Standards (CAS) provides standards that colleges and universities across the globe use as benchmarks in program assessment. The Standards, the 'must' statements in bold print, are baseline expectations for programs. The Guidelines for Practice (the 'should' statements in regular print) are a roadmap to program excellence.
