Advising

The College of Forestry provides professional academic advisors who are experts on your curriculum, College and University policies, and student development. Our primary purpose is to assist our students in making the most of this educational opportunity. Your Forestry advisor will stay with you from orientation to graduation.

UPDATE September 9, 2020: COF Academic Advisors are working remotely and available to students by mobile phone or email.  Advising appointments will be conducted by Zoom or phone.  

 How much time should I schedule? You can have as much time as you need! These are suggestions to help you.
