The Humanities Office of Undergraduate Study offers advising through email, scheduled appointments (in-person or via Zoom), drop-in appointments (in-person or via Zoom), and online chat. Please read through the information below to determine which form of advising best works for you.

The Humanities Undergraduate Office will be physically closed and available remotely on most Tuesdays during the Summer.  You can contact an Academic Advisor over email on those days.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Please only pursue one advising route at a time, so that we can efficiently and effectively answer all student inquiries in a timely manner.

EMAIL ADVISING

If you have just a few straightforward questions for a counselor, email is a great way to get the information you need. You can expect a response from a counselor within 24-48 business hours.

Examples of questions that can be asked via email:

  • What do you think about this tentative course schedule?
  • Can you help me decide how many units I should take?
  • How many courses do I have remaining for my major?
