What can my academic advisor do for me?
Your academic advisor is a partner in your academic journey as you move through and graduate from Texas A&M University.
Your academic advisor is a reliable sources of information about your major, one who can help you:
- Explore your interests
- Consider alternative majors or minors
- Select courses
- Add or drop courses
- Build your degree plan
- Meet your degree requirements
- Remove holds from your account
Academic advisors can also connect you with academic and personal support programs, co-curricular opportunities, and career options.
What should I do if I can't reach my advisor?
It might take longer than usual to contact your advisor during busy parts of the semester. Email is the best way to reach your advisor, but you should also consider attending drop-in sessions via Zoom or in-person (exact availability will depend on your department, major or program).
How should I prepare for a meeting with my academic advisor?
Academic advising is a crucial part of your educational experience at Texas A&M University. To get the most out of your advising session, prepare for it: go into your meeting with an agenda of relevant topics and questions to make the best use of everyone's time.
Some advisors provide students with directions for preparing for specific meetings, such as pre-registration advising. Others will expect students to come into the meeting with an understanding of their degree programs and the requirements that they have met so far. It's a good idea to make a list of the classes you have taken and check out the degree requirements in the
Undergraduate Catalog.
