Advising

The key to success.

Making the decision to pursue your master’s degree is a big choice. It can lead to more experiences, greater knowledge, and bigger opportunities. To make sure that you’re on track, utilize your advisor’s knowledge and all the advising resources available to you.

WATERMARK 

A powerful tool to help you improve.

Assessment is integral to creating and improving an effective education program at all levels. In the Department of Counseling and Graduate Education, we use Watermark’s Student Success & Licensure (“Watermark”) to help us collect and store your assessments. This information allows us to modify, improve, and evolve our teaching and programs to better serve you.

You will be provided an account in Watermark for each semester that you are in your graduate education programs. Your course instructors will talk to you about Watermark and the specific assessments you will upload to this data-collection system.

ACCESSING YOUR ACCOUNT

Purdue Fort Wayne staff will create your Watermark account early in your program. You can log in using your regular Purdue username and password. Please note that this is your system-wide username and password. These are most likely the same as your PFW information, but if there are any challenges, please call IT at 765-494-4000.
