College of Arts & Sciences Academic Advising
Advising Process
- The COAS Advising Office currently provides academic advising services by appointment only. While booking an appointment with their assigned advisor, students may choose a in-person, phone or online session.
- If an online session is selected, the student will be sent an e-mail with the link to the virtual meeting the day of the scheduled appointment.
- Advising appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes only. We recommend preparing materials and questions before the appointment to ensure time is used efficiently.
- Registration recommendations are based on the student’s degree plan and published class schedule.
- If unforeseen circumstances arise, we kindly ask students to cancel or reschedule their advising appointment accordingly.
- Should a follow-up appointment be needed, students should follow the same steps for scheduling an appointment with their assigned advisor.
Advising Appointments
As of Spring 2020, all students are assigned to an Academic Success Coach. A student’s assigned advisor is visible on DegreeWorks or may be verified by emailing COASadvisors@tamiu.edu.
Please note: All appointments available are based on Central Time. Please do not change time zone settings while scheduling an advising appointment.
Please note: If no days appear to be available, please refresh the website. If this does not work, please email coasadvisors@tamiu.edu
