Appointments

The College of Science and Engineering advisors are able to provide accurate, friendly, and consistent academic advising to our majors.

Advisors work with students to explain degree requirements and university policies, answer questions regarding academic probation and suspension, and assist in choosing appropriate on-campus and off-campus coursework.

Advisors are also able to refer students to appropriate campus resources and help create degree plans.

Advisors love when you bring a list of questions to your appointment - we want to make sure your questions get answered. If the advisor is not the correct person to ask, they will refer you to the right office or person.

A "no-show" is a scheduled appointment that is missed without a cancellation notice. A cancellation notice after the scheduled appointment time has begun is a "no-show." Arriving more than 10 minutes late for your scheduled appointment also counts as a "no-show." 

If you need to cancel your appointment with an advisor, please call the College of Science and Engineering Undergraduate Advising Center before your scheduled appointment time at 512.245.1315. 

If you have two no-shows in one academic year, you will be required to meet with the Associate Dean of Science and Engineering to determine if you are able to schedule further appointments with the advising center.  If the Associate Dean permits you to schedule further advising appointments, and you no-show again in the same academic year, you will not be permitted to schedule future appointments and your advising must take place via email or virtual express advising for the remainder of that academic year.

If you have advising holds on your account, no-showing your appointment could affect your ability to register in a timely fashion. 

An academic year is the beginning of the Fall semester through the end of the Summer semester. The no-show count will reset at the beginning of each new academic year.
