Academic Advising

At this time, there are no drop-ins. If you need to speak with your advisor, you will need to make an appointment. Keep in mind that these appointments are not for long-term planning. That is done at the Academic Advising Sessions. Students will get an email when registration for sessions is available.

To schedule a meeting with your advisor, scan your advisor's QR Code or click on her name:

Tracy Hanson                                                          Jazmyn Thomas

Click on the dropdown menu to choose a program.

Helpful hint - when you get to your advisor's page, choose "Day View" instead of "Calendar View".            

Academic Advising Sessions

All CJS Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors must attend an Academic Advising Session each semester. The session you register for depends on the number of credit hours you have completed - so you'll go by the number of hours you completed at the end of last semester, not including classes for the current semester.

Students will be notified via their ISU email when registration for Advising Sessions opens up.
