Advising

Undergraduate Advising

When should I see a Philosophy advisor?

  • When first declaring your major or minor in philosophy.
  • At least once each year to discuss your academic interests, progress, and plans.
  • The spring before you begin your senior year (or at least three terms prior to your expected graduation) to avoid delays in graduating.
  • To transfer credits in philosophy from another institution
  • To get philosophy credit for courses taken during study abroad
  • To prepare for graduate study in philosophy.

Please note: If you need advising for anything outside the Philosophy Department, including career advising, you must contact the Office of Academic Advising.
