Advising Information
For questions on Academic Status (Good Standing, Academic Probation, Recess, Dismissal) please contact Erica Weeks, Director of Advising, at fiaskye@msu.edu.
We suggest that you meet with your advisor regularly, at least once a semester, to receive assistance with major selection, schedule planning, utilizing MSU resources, career planning and much more! Anytime you may have an academic question you should contact your advisor, while some questions can be handled by email, many issues benefit from a face-to-face conversation.
Before visiting your advisor, you should:
- Reflect on how you are doing in your classes.
- Review the degree program requirements for the majors that interest you.
- Think about any questions you might have about your major, the College of Engineering, or the university.
- During annual enrollment (in the spring) think about classes you might be interested in taking during the summer and next year.
Your advisor is assigned to you based on your major and class standing (first-year, sophomore, junior, senior). If you're a member of the Honors College, you will have a specific advisor for that program in addition to your College of Engineering advisor.
