Academic Advising

Find your School of Liberal Arts advisor, and make an appointment

Your undergraduate academic advisor is your personal guide through the IUPUI academic experience. Meet with your advisor at least once per semester to discuss your long-term goals and which courses you should take in the upcoming semester.

Remember: Your advisor will help you, but ultimately it’s your responsibility to understand and meet your degree requirements.

Make an appointment

Schedule your in-person or online appointment using the Student Appointment Scheduler or by calling 317-274-3976. Online appointments are available via Zoom and your advisor will provide you with the Zoom link via email prior to your appointment.

Drop in

Drop-in advising is available in Cavanaugh Hall room 401.

  • Every Monday from 1-4 p.m.
  • Every Wednesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.
