* Non-Departmental Advising
For undergraduates, your college advising office also provides important guidance. You may go to them with non-major/minor-specific questions, such as questions about GEs, late withdrawals from a class, a leave of absence, etc. View college advising contacts.
Graduate students will interact with the Graduate Division regarding grad orientation, certain required trainings, etc. You will be contacted by Grad Div via email for actions that they require.
In addition to working with your department academic advisor, it is important to be in contact with faculty, who serve as mentors. Ladder rank faculty are here to help you with the direction of your work, and to give you ideas about possibilities after completing your B.A. Keep them informed of what you are doing and discuss your work and interests with them.
