Meet with Your Advisor
1. Choosing the Right Appointment
Selecting the service that best matches your needs helps us prepare and provide the support you're looking for. Whether you're planning your first semester, changing majors, or just checking in, choosing the right option ensures your Advisor is ready to assist you effectively.
Review the advising appointments carefully—its a small step that makes a big difference.
Advising Appointments
Course mapping appointments are to help you align your academic goals with degree requirements. Advisors work with you one-on-one to map out courses, track degree progress, explore major and minor options, and stay on course for graduation.
Express Registration appointments are brief, 10–15 minute sessions focused solely on course registration. These quick appointments are intended for students who are not currently enrolled in classes and are not designed to cover broader academic planning or issues that require extended advising. To check current availability, please see here.
IMPORTANT: If you've already registered for classes for the upcoming semester, your appointment may be rescheduled to a regular advising session tailored more specifically to your needs.
A Graduation Check is a service offered by the Academic Advising Center to help students identify the remaining courses needed to complete their degree requirements in final their semester(s).
IMPORTANT: Priority will be given to students who have applied for graduation.
Change of Major appointment is for students considering or planning a major change. An academic Advisor will help you explore new major options, review degree requirements, and determine how your completed coursework applies to the new program.
New Trailblazer Advising appointments are designed to help new students plan their academic journey by reviewing degree requirements, selecting courses, and answering questions about registration and campus resources. It’s your first step toward a successful start at UNT Dallas.
