Advising Center

All academic advising will be conducted via phone or online via Zoom desktop video conferencing. If you need an advising appointment, schedule a meeting with your assigned academic adviser. For quick questions, utilize our drop-in Zoom hours or email your assigned adviser. If you are unable to connect with him or her, please contact the Advising Center at [email protected].

Drop-in advising will be held via Zoom during the following times:
Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 11:15 a.m.–1:15 p.m.
Tuesday, Thursday: 2:30 p.m.–4:20 p.m.
Connect to the drop-in advising session

The basic tasks of the University’s academic advising program are to help advisees identify and achieve their academic goals, to promote intellectual discovery, to encourage students to take advantage of both in- and out-of-class educational opportunities, and to become self-directed learners and decision makers.

Academic advising specialists are available at each campus to help students; in addition, there is a full range of print and electronic advising resources for student use, including LionPath. The Advising Center can help with your advising questions.

The Advising Center offers:

  • Academic advising and course scheduling.
  • Assistance with selection of major, change of major, change of campus location.
