Welcome to Advising Services for the College of Social Work and Criminal Justice at 麻豆精品视频. We are here to guide you on the specific degree requirements necessary to achieve your academic goals. Advising appointments are strongly encouraged each semester to ensure you stay on track and on time for graduation.

Advising appointments must be and are available in three formats:

  1. In Person
  2. Online/Virtual: On a computer, not a mobile device
  3. Phone: With computer nearby

IMPORTANT: For online and phone appointments, make sure you are in a secure, quiet, distraction-free environment where you can take notes. Computer access is required so we can review links and other pertinent information together, whether we are meeting virtually or by phone. Appointments cannot take place while you are working, driving, or engaged in other activities.听

Drop-In Advising sessions are offered during the first week of each semester during Drop/Add week only.
