Appointments
Student Support Advisors can advise all majors, but each have an assigned area of majors, and students are encouraged to work with the advisor who is connected to their major. Click here to view the advisors for each area, as well as their schedules.
Walk-Ins
All walk-in students should arrive at least two hours before closing to ensure there’s enough time to be seen.
Virtual
Students can make video appointments and receive remote help from the Student Support Advisors during virtual advising. If a Student Support Advisor can’t be reached immediately, students can expect a response within 24 hours.
If students wish to see a specific advisor, their scheduled days for walk-ins, appointments and virtual advising can be seen on their cards.
If you schedule a video appointment, you will need to have a working webcam, and it must be turned on during the appointment. If this is not possible for you, an in person appointment will be required.
