Same-Day advising
Wednesdays, 9 a.m. – noon (Arizona Standard Time)
via Zoom or phone
There are a limited number of remote Same-Day Advising meetings available on Wednesday mornings. These meetings are 15 minutes long and meant for quick advising questions. If your conversation runs over 15 minutes, the advisor will instruct you to schedule a regular appointment to continue the discussion.

The last Same-Day Advising meeting will begin at 11:40am. If you call after 11:40am, or if there are no more open Same-Day meeting times when you call, the front desk will assist you in scheduling a regular advising appointment, or you may try again the following week.
It is important to us that we provide access to advisors on a consistent basis. On rare occasions, however, Same-Day Advising might be canceled at the last minute in the event of advisor’s absence or if otherwise necessary.

Students are encouraged to meet with an advisor at least once each semester.
If you have a quick question, you can email [email protected].
Please provide your 10-digit ASU ID.
Be prepared when meeting or contacting an advisor. For example, have your ASU ID with you, make a list of questions, and review your unofficial transcript and/or your Degree Audit Report (DARS) through MyASU. Know why you want to meet with an advisor and prepare necessary materials for the meeting. If you are a transfer student, please come prepared with information about your transfer coursework. It is recommended that you also bring something with which to take notes.
Undergraduate advising philosophy
Our goal is to assist students in achieving their personal, educational, and career goals while becoming self-directed, life-long learners. As your academic advisors, we are here to:
- Help you navigate your undergraduate education at ASU.
- Assist you in setting achievable academic and career goals.
- Facilitate your understanding of university and academic program requirements, policies and procedures.
- Teach you how to find available resources both inside and outside of ASU that will enhance your education.
- Assist you in identifying other experiences that will strengthen your ability to obtain your goals.
- Evaluate your progress toward degree completion.
Responsibility of the advisee
Students have responsibilities when it comes to the advising they receive as undergraduates in our programs.
- Obtain and utilize the appropriate information needed to assume final responsibility for your own course scheduling, program planning, and successful completion of degree program requirements.
- Learn the university and school policies, procedures, and guidelines.
- Learn and understand the requirements for your degree and major.
- Be prepared when meeting or contacting an advisor.
- Seek assistance and resources for all aspects of your undergraduate experience, not just when you encounter a problem.
- Consult with your academic advisor regularly, or at least once each semester.
