Academic advisors help students in all Gateway programs to reach their academic goals.

Undergraduate and Graduate: Academic advisors will register you for classes and facilitate a successful transition to your future studies.
Make an Appointment
After the second week of classes, you may request an appointment with an academic advisor.
If you do not have an appointment but wish to speak with an advisor, you can ask the desk staff at the Learning Resource Center (LRC) in Room 1305 of the Global Center to see if an advisor is available.
Personal Advising
