Advising

Advising is an important part of making academic progress. Please know your advisor and make appointments in plenty of time to plan your studies!

As we transition out of the worst period of the COVID pandemic, advising will be a mixture of virtual and in-person (masked, distanced) meetings. Please contact your specific advisor for information.

Please note that if you fall into more than one of the categories below, you may be advised by more than one person.
