Advising

Get advising early!! It can help you plan your semester and career as a COMS/CINE major. 

Advisors are assigned by the student's last name.  Find your advisor below and reach out to set up an appointment. Please meet with your COMS/CINE advisor regularly to discuss program requirements as some requirements may have changed.

Check out our Advising PowerPoint for further information.  Another great resource is the Academic Advising and Course Registration-Student Tool Kit.  *Please note the PowerPoint and Tool Kit have not yet been updated and are based on the old GE patterns Until updated, please contact your COMS Advisor for more info.
