Ask Your Advisor
Establishing a relationship with an academic advisor ensures that you are meeting your specific degree requirements and accomplishing your personal academic goals.
Welcome to academic advising. UNLV currently has 12 academic advising centers on campus each with their own unique approach to working with their majors, as well as off-campus advising available at the College of Southern Nevada and Nellis Air Force Base. The executive director of academic advising at UNLV is responsible for the institutional objectives and general leadership of the academic advising centers on campus, as well as the promotion of the value and progress of academic advising at UNLV.
As a UNLV student, academic advising is required for all new students. Incoming freshmen will meet with their First-Year Advisor at New Student Orientation and incoming transfer students are required to schedule an individual advising appointment with their academic advising center. Establishing a relationship with an academic advisor ensures that you are meeting your specific degree requirements and accomplishing your personal academic goals. Have a look around and find answers to your questions. And remember, when in doubt, ask your academic advisor!
Advising Centers
Ready to meet with your Academic Advisor? Contact the appropriate Advising Center (according to your declared major) to schedule an appointment with an Academic Advisor.
Each center is equipped with a staff of Academic Advisors who are eager to meet with students about their academic goals and assist in constructing a plan for graduation. Please be sure to arrive to your appointment prepared with any questions that you may have about degree requirements, involvement on campus and any other area that will help you succeed at UNLV!
Note: Current students who have previously met with an Academic Advisor can also schedule an appointment online via Rebel Success Hub. Follow the steps online to learn how to schedule your appointment online.
For students who plan to change their current major to a new major that is housed under a different College, please contact the new Advising Center of the desired major to schedule an advising appointment. This feature is not available in Rebel Success Hub, so you must contact the Advising Center directly.
For additional information about your major, visit the degrees directory page.
