Students should only make an appointment with one advisor at a time to ensure there are enough appointments for all students to be supported. Thank you.
You may also email the general advising email (sociologyadvising@fullerton.edu) and one of the advisors will try to respond within several days. If you have an emergency advising situation, you should email sociology@fullerton.edu or clearly identify the emergency in your advising email and subject line. An advisor will get back to you as soon as possible. Note that email works best for shorter questions. Should your email require a longer response, the advisor may ask you to make an appointment or to contact them directly. Though the advisors will be checking email routinely, we do ask for your patience with response times. Thank you!
