Advising Appointments
All of our advisors are major specific.
If you are not sure who your advisor is, you can email [email protected] or view your Student Profile in MyMocsNet.
Arts & Sciences students are required to meet with their advisor at least once a semester, prior to registration for the next term. These advising appointments are opportunities to help with course planning, discuss degree requirements, discuss academic concerns, provide information about campus resources, consider internship opportunities, track graduation progress and much more. While only one appointment is required, we encourage students to meet with their advisor as often as necessary to ensure success!

All advising appointments are scheduled via Navigate.
HUB advisors send students invitations to schedule their registration advising appointments. You will receive an email with a link to schedule: do so as soon as you receive it. Our peak time for registration advising is Mid February-Early April and Mid September-Early November.
