Welcome to CNAS Advising
Although the UCR campus is closed through June 19 in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Spring 2020 quarter has begun and instruction is being conducted remotely. In addition, UCR's Summer Session is also being delivered remotely. However, the staff of the CNAS Undergraduate Academic Advising Center are still available to assist you and our services continue to be offered online during the campus closure!
We recognize that this is a challenging and unprecedented situation, so we are doing all we can to limit the disruptions to our students' academic needs while working to contain the spread of the virus as much as possible. As of now, academic advising is being conducted by:
-
Email (primary method) - visit your major's advising page for your advisor's contact information
-
Zoom - online 30-minute appointments set up by your advisor or "online drop-in sessions" you can access through MyAdvising.ucr.edu. Follow this link for more details on how to schedule an online drop-in session with your advisor
For more academic resources to students during this time, you can visit: keeplearning.ucr.edu
The CNAS Undergraduate Academic Advising Center helps students understand the policies and procedures pertaining to their academic careers. All CNAS students are assigned an Academic Advisor who provides them with the guidance they need to navigate their degree path as well as the university as a whole. Advisors are also here to direct students to the proper on-campus and off-campus resources. Important reasons why you should visit the CNAS Advising Center include:
