Academic Advising

Any student who has completed less than 24 credit hours is required to meet with an Academic Advisor. We encourage all students to make an appointment if you need assistance with changing your degree program, determining your progress toward meeting degree requirements, planning a course sequence, or creating a plan to overcome obstacles interfering with your academic success. 

Working with an Academic Advisor helps ensure you start and stay on track to achieve educational and career goals. Your academic, career and life choices are yours to make, but Academic Advisors can assist you by encouraging and guiding you through programs, graduation requirements, policies, procedures, registering for and dropping classes, and also by referring students to appropriate campus resources. 

Your Advisor is here to help you meet your educational goals. 

If you are unsure who your Advisor is, call our office at (505) 566-3404 and we'll get you connected.

How to Schedule an Advising Appointment

• After being admitted, please review the Admitted Student Guides and complete the steps. 
• Contact the Advising Center and set up an appointment to meet with an advisor. In-person, online and phone appointments available. 
• Appointments are strongly encouraged, but walk-in sessions are often available. Walk-ins are served in a first come - first served manner; however, students with advising appointments have priority.
• Please note that during peak registration times, advisors may be available by walk-in only.
