Have Questions or Need Support?
Advising
Advising is a partnership between you and your academic advisor. Together, you will work to create educational plans to meet your academic, career and personal goals. You are responsible for being prepared for and participating in advising sessions, as well as understanding university and program requirements.
Need help scheduling free tutoring, locating mental health resources or finding other opportunities to help you succeed? Our advisors meet with students to discuss any barriers they may be experiencing, and to discuss ways to overcome those barriers.
How to Schedule Advising
Typically, you will receive emails throughout the year when it is time to schedule an advising appointment. However, you may also contact your advisor to request an appointment.
Find Your Assigned Advisor
Your advisor is listed in in the Advisor box. Your advisor's name and contact information will be listed in the column on the right side of the screen. Your advisor is also listed on the first page of your DARS report.
If no advisor is listed in your MyOHIO Student Center, contact the Student Services Office so they can connect you to the appropriate advisor.
