You can connect to an advisor in any of these ways:

   • Appointments open at midnight 7 days in advance. If no appointments are listed, check back between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m. weekdays for same-day appointments. Masks may be requested in individual advising offices if scheduling an in-person appointment.

     • In-Person CLAS General Academic Advising appointment scheduling.
2. Drop in for Advising for Quick Questions (Remote) with a Peer Advisor between 2:30 and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday if your question is quick, such as:
   • Students will be served on a first-come, first-served basis within the AQQ block.
   • An advisor should be able to answer your question within 5 minutes, for example:
     • Confirming what you need to graduate next term.
     • Confirming your schedule will put you on track by the end of next term.
     • Simple questions about your degree audit (e.g., how do I meet foreign language, do I need another Writing course? etc.).
     • Changing to a CLAS major if you are in your first- or second-year and are or can easily be on-track for the next term for the new major.
     • Questions about declaring a minor.

4. Send us an email if your question is relatively simple. Email advisor@advising.ufl.edu, especially if you are not seeing any available appointments. We may be able to more promptly assist you via email.
