Contact Your Advisor
Hours and Appointments
Our office is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays. Our office is closed on University holidays.
Students are welcome to email their academic advisor with any quick questions they may have. For longer questions or more detailed discussions, we recommend that students schedule a virtual or in-person appointment using Starfish. You can access Starfish by logging in to the single sign-on portal, clicking on the Starfish app, and then clicking on your advisor’s name on your Starfish homepage.
During peak volume weeks (such as when registration windows are first opening, or during the first week of classes) our advisors offer virtual drop-in advising. Contact our office for more information.
