Re: Academic Advisor Position

Dear Ms. Jenkins:

I am an experienced Academic Advisor with proven skills working with students from diverse academic, socioeconomic, and cultural backgrounds. I recently noticed the Academic Advisor job posting on SouthUniversityTimes.com and feel this is the correct position for me because my experience and education match the skills for which you are searching.

I am strongly committed to the area of academic advising as I have been an Academic Advisor at Bell University for the past five years. I have been responsible for planning, developing, and conducting individual advising assistance with academic advising, class scheduling, and degree plans. Additionally, I am an active member in the National Academic Advising Association where I most recently taught a program session at the national conference titled, "Advising with a Dream." I have a bachelor's degree in Education and am currently pursuing my master's in Counseling in Higher Education. I have strong organizational skills which have been shown through tracking and monitoring multiple students through various semesters as well as developing reports that are submitted to State and Federal Agencies.

I look forward to discussing my background with you further. I have enclosed my resume and cover letter for your review. I will follow-up with you in 2-3 days to set-up a time to talk about this position. Thank you, in advance, for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Jones
