Welcome to the University Academic Advisement Center!

You can connect with a member of your academic advising team through the Navigate Student mobile app, the Navigate webpage or by email. If you are having challenges connecting and you are a freshman or sophomore bachelor’s degree seeking student (0-69  earned hours), contact the University Academic Advisement Center at 601-979-2127. Additional advising information can be found on the Find My Advisor page.

If you are a current student, stop by your assigned academic advisor’s office to complete a form. You may consider making an appointment to discuss any requirements before entering into a specific major. Not every major requires a concentration and not every major allows for a minor.

If you are a new student beginning classes in an upcoming semester and wish to change your major, you must wait until your first advising session during your orientation experience. If you have extenuating circumstances and need to make a change immediately email advising@60654a.com.

New students admitted for fall and spring semesters should attend New Student Orientation. Register here. During orientation, students meet with academic advisors to plan their schedules and register for classes, socialize with current and new students and learn their way around campus. 

If you see holds on your account, reach out to your advisor regarding the type of hold you are experiencing. You can connect with a member of your academic advising team through the Navigate or email them directly.  You should see hold information listed in your PAWS account. Depending on the hold, your advisor will assist you on the steps needed to remove the hold to allow you to register.

If you need to submit a sap or petition for university reinstatement, reach out to your advisor regarding the type of petition you need to complete. They can direct you to the correct form and/or steps to take. Academic advisors do not complete petitions for course reinstatements.

Typically, students are dropped due to attendance, non-payment of tuition by the deadline, failure to complete or accept all financial aid documents or exclusion from the university. If you have been academically suspended, contact your advisor to discuss procedures for reinstatement. To avoid being dropped, make sure you check your student e-mail and PAWS account before the drop/add periods end.
