Undergraduate Advising

Academic Advising helps current undergraduate UW students plan for and declare a major in art, art history, or design, and add minors; identify and register for classes that fit both the student’s interests and schedule;
connect to resources on campus including health and wellness services, career opportunities, and more.

Meet with an Adviser

Students can meet with an adviser in person or virtually to discuss courses, majors, minors, study abroad, or fellowship and scholarship opportunities. Appointments can be scheduled at least one day in advance and made up to two weeks out. New appointment slots become available on a rolling basis. Fridays are open for virtual appointments only.
