Advising Centers

How do I find my advisors?

At SJSU, advisors are assigned by major. For a list of College Success Centers refer to the SJSU College Advising Centers. 

Note: If you are currently undeclared, see the Undeclared: Exploratory Student Success Center for further information. If you are undecided (means you have a declared major, but are thinking about switching to another program) you will want to see advisors for your current major as well as for your prospective major(s).

What should I ask my advisor?

• Are you taking the right math course(s) for your major?
• Are you on track to complete your GE Area 1A (formerly A2) and Area 1B (formerly A3) writing requirements by the end of your first year?
• What is required to declare the major? (if applicable to your situation.)
• Which required classes should you take next semester to stay on track for on-time graduation (or to declare the major)?
• What requirements (General Education or major) have I already completed through AP, IB or Community College coursework?
• Which classes should be taken over the course of the next two years to stay on track for on-time graduation (or to declare the major)? (This is called an advising roadmap.)
