The preferred method to meet with your advisor is during a full appointment either in-person or virtually. You can find details on scheduling an in person or virtual appointment in the Academic Advising tab.

Virtual Express Advising is available during the fall and spring semesters using an online chat platform which can be accessed by clicking the link below. Please note that Express Advising is only available during the stated hours - we cannot respond to any chat messages received outside of our scheduled hours. Students will be helped in the order in which they join the queue. 

Note: If your advisor is in First and Second Year Advising (FSYA), you should use FSYA's Express Advising services. See the FSYA site for more information.
