Academic Advising
What is "Drop-In" Advising?
- No appointment necessary.
- Simply arrive, or join online, during one of the times listed for your advising center and join the waitlist.
- Students are seen on a first-come, first-served basis.
- In-person and virtual options are available.
- Wait times to see an advisor can vary, so plan accordingly.
- Drop-In hours may change throughout the semester to better accommodate high-traffic advising times.
