Lower Division students (0-59 earned units) complete major advising every semester with their assigned Student Success Specialist Advisor.

Upper Division Student (60 or more earned units), complete major advising every semester with their assigned Faculty Advisor.

All College of Science Major Advising Appointments

Connect with your advisor for a virtual or in-person appointment through the "Academic/Schedule Planning" service in Spartan Connect. Completion of this advising service removes a College of Science Advising Hold.

Starting April 22 and ending May 09, 2025 students can attend Drop In virtual or in person sessions for hold removal. Review the Drop In webpage view the schedule and locations for drop in advising.

These services can be accessed in two different locations; Duncan Hall (DH) 212 and the Undergraduate Advising Hub in the Student Services Center. The location of your appointment will depend on your scheduling service and assigned advisor.

Read the Spartan Connect Student Self-Service Appointment Scheduling Guide to learn how to schedule your major advising appointment. If you exceed the no-show limit for Spartan Connect you cannot schedule an appointment on your own.
