“The Strong” is a comprehensive and highly trusted major and career assessment. It compares a student's personal interests to real people in real careers, pointing them toward the majors, careers, and work environments where they're most likely to thrive.
Advisors in the A Center are Strong Certified and specially trained to help students understand their results and turn them into real next steps. All it takes is a 40-minute online assessment followed by a one-hour interpretation appointment with one of our advisors.

Advize - Career Wisdom on Demand
Advize is a free online platform where Wildcats can explore career paths and hear directly from working professionals, including Arizona alumni, to build the career awareness they need before pursuing a paid internship. For students who feel intimidated about reaching out to professionals, Advize is a practical first step.
It aligns with Step 4 of the Big 7, the Center for Career Readiness' roadmap to securing a paid internship, by helping students build the baseline career knowledge and confidence they need before having a conversation with someone in their field.
Students can create a free account using their university email at https://www.students.advizehub.com/login/university-of-arizona.
