We are Offering Registration Advising by Appointment Only Until April 3rd
After April 3rd, we will be offering registration advising appointments in the morning and virtual drop-in hours in the afternoon. Please note that at this time we will only be discussing summer/fall 2023 registration issues. Any other advising questions can be addressed when regular advising resumes after registration ends (April 14). Drop-in advising hours and links will be posted closer to the start of the registration period.
