College of Liberal Arts Advising
College of Liberal Arts (CLA) students can schedule an appointment to meet with their college advisor (in-person or virtually), Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM-4:30 PM, year round.
The College of Liberal Arts realizes that competent and caring advisors are an essential part of a college student’s academic success. We encourage you to find your advisor and meet with him or her regularly. This will not only help your academic progress but can provide you valuable insight on careers or further educational opportunities.
If you have declared a major, please contact the department secretary and ask to be assigned a faculty advisor.
If you are a current CLA student and cannot reach your faculty advisor, please contact your College Advisor assigned to you in Pipeline. If you are a prospective CLA student, please contact the College Academic Advisor below assigned to your major and last name. To make sure that all your forms have been completed for graduation please contact our Graduation Coordinator.
