Academic Advising during COVID-19

Academic advising continues as usual! Academic advisors are working remotely and are completely prepared to advise and help you with course selection, plan aheads, S/U grading questions, online learning, and fall registration. Please schedule your academic advising appointment using the links below. A few suggestions when scheduling and preparing for advising:

Look back through your emails to find any communication from your academic advisor, they may have suggested a time frame in which you should schedule an appointment.
Plan to talk to your academic advisor either through Zoom or phone. Zoom is preferred, and great for screen sharing!
Use your degree evaluation to choose classes for fall, and create a plan ahead to incorporate them.
Please be patient in response time from your academic advisor – we are also managing households with children and spouse’s work schedules – if you haven’t heard from your advisor in over 48 hours, feel free to send a reminder email to follow up.
