Our Publications

NACADA, the Global Community of Academic Advising, sponsors two peer-reviewed, scholarly journals. NACADA defines scholarly inquiry based on Boyer’s (1990) four elements of scholarship (discovery, integration, application, and teaching) and grounded in a belief that research, theory, and practice are interconnected and dynamic.

NACADA Journal cover

The NACADA Journal advances the field of academic advising through the publication of peer-reviewed research and scholarship; these discoveries contribute to our understanding and improvement of the learning experiences of all students within an academic advising context. Founded in 1981, the Journal publishes biannually in print and on the web.

The NACADA Review: Academic Advising Praxis and Perspectives publishes peer-reviewed articles (on a rolling basis) focused on the dynamic application of relevant theory and scholarship within the practice of academic advising. Articles explore issues and challenge readers to move from reflective thought to action applicable to other institutional, national, or socio-cultural contexts.
