ADVISING OPTIONS

Kent State University has professional academic advisors available for students to meet with to discuss their academic progress and plan their pathway for graduation. Kent State requires all undergraduate students that are NOT up for Fall 2021 or Spring 2022 graduation to come in for a scheduled academic advising appointment. These required advising appointments  (and any academic planning appointment) must be scheduled using the KSU Advising link.. 

• Scheduled required advising appointments are 30 minutes long, be sure to double-check the start time of your appointment.
• Be on time or your appointment may be canceled. 

For your convenience, our office also offers other methods to get your non-mandatory advising related questions answered: 

• Quick Question Advising Appointments: Held in-person, Monday-Friday, from 2:00-3:00pm.

• E-mail Advising: Students are also able to email their academic advisor with quick questions or concerns. E-mail advising should not be utilized for course planning, as the conversation that influences the advisor's course recommendations cannot be accommodated. For email advising, please find your advisor’s email address below. Include your name and student ID number and the specific question you have.
