We can help you create a clear meaningful pathway to finish your degree.

The College of Arts and Sciences offers specialized advising meaning you are assigned your own personal academic advisor. Not only do we help you select classes, we also help assess and track degree progress, discuss post- graduate options, and much more.

Schedule an appointment with one of our professional undergraduate advisors:

Most appointments last approximately 30 minutes. For newly admitted students, we require 60 minute appointments. When you arrive at the office for your appointment, please check-in at the kiosk located at our front desk in the reception desk area. Appointments are scheduled on a first come, first served basis. So plan ahead and make your appointment today.
