Advisor Contact Information

Scheduling Appointments

• You are required to meet with your academic advisor/success coach for major and career exploration and pre-registration appointments and removing an advising hold each semester.

There are two ways to schedule an appointment:

• By Phone: 757-683-4805
• Online: Request a meeting with your advisor through their Calendly link or email.

Email Best Practices

Please follow the best practices below when working with your advisor:

Read your University email regularly. You will receive many important emails from the office and from the University which may contain instructions for registration, financial notices, important requirements, and more!

Be mindful of email response times. The standard response time for email is 2-3 business days. Keep in mind, responses may take longer during busy times of the academic calendar (registration, holidays, etc).

Office hours are 9:00-5:00 Monday-Friday. Emails/Text Messages will be answered during these hours.

Include a meaningful subject line

• Example: Use “Fall 2019 Course Change or A Question about Business Majors” NOT “Quick Question!”

Consider scheduling an appointment if your email contains complex questions that can be better addressed in person.
