Student Academic Services (AH 213) is available to advise you on the requirements for the major as well as University and College requirements. To schedule an academic advising appointment on the Boca campus, please call 561-297-3800, or log into the Success Network.

The School also offers walk-in advising most Thursdays at the Boca Raton campus. During a walk-in session, we can answer registration questions, assist with forms needing signatures (e.g. drop/add), clarify deadlines and policies, and address general questions about requirements. During walk-in sessions, we cannot perform full degree audits, assist with forms requiring detailed information/research (e.g. Financial Aid Appeals), assist students with less than 30 earned credits; and walk-in appointments cannot be used as first appointments for new students or transfers. A walk-in appointment is meant to provide answers to time-sensitive or "quick" questions. You will be able to spend 10-15 minutes with an advisor, and a follow-up or full appointment may be necessary. Walk-in hours may be shortened due to high volume, and you will need to allow for wait time; the duration/delay will depend on the number of students seeking advising, and sessions are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

Changes to the walk-in advising schedule will be posted on the Student Academic Services site; please check this page again before you plan your visit.

Academic advising is also available on the Davie campuses; To schedule an academic advising appointment in Davie, please call 954-236-1101, or log into the Success Network.
