Advising Information

See an Advisor

  • It is recommended that Media Arts majors and minors see an advisor in person each semester.
  • Advising appointments are made one day in advance through the Media Arts Office, either by phone at 621-7352 (talk to a person, not voice mail) or in person at Marshall 220. For a Monday appointment, call on the previous Friday.
  • Appointments are taken Monday - Friday, 8:15-11:45 and 1:15-4:00.
  • During priority advising periods (October/November and March/April) appointments are filled quickly, so you may wish to call early in the day to get an appointment on the following day. Check the priority advising schedule.
  • Degree checks are not processed during the priority advising period.
  • Faculty advisors are only available during Fall and Spring semesters when classes are in session. Faculty advisors are not available during Summer and Winter Sessions, nor during breaks in classes (Spring Break, finals, etc.)
  • Christina Swanson (Media Arts' Sr. Academic Advisor) is available for undergraduate advising year-round, including summer. Follow the above procedure to make an appointment.
  • Email advising is neither recommended nor encouraged (though "quick questions" to Dr. Swanson are usually answered promptly -- except during priority advising, when email responses can be delayed considerably).
