Who is my Academic Adviser

You can identify your assigned academic adviser on your MySAIL account. In the My Details box at the top of the page. You will see a blue ADVISER link right under your class standing. This link will give you the name and email of your assigned adviser.  You are always welcome to use our general advising office email at casadv@oakland.edu as needed.

In the College you also have a faculty adviser specific to your CAS major(s) and/or minor(s).  You can find those names here.

Appointments (currently virtual)

All advising appointments are currently being conducted via Google Meet, ZOOM or phone until further notice.

Please call (248) 370-4567 to schedule an appointment. You will receive instructions on your virtual appointment through your Oakland University email. If you prefer a phone appointment, please let us know when scheduling.

Drop-In Advising (currently virtual)

Drop-in advising should ONLY be used for registration specific issues that cannot wait for an appointment. We will see students for Transfer Student Orientations but no prospective students will be seen during drop-in advising.

CAS offers drop-in advising several times per year.

• During Open Registration each March
• The first week of classes for Fall and Winter semesters

Drop-in advising is first come, first serve. Sign-in begins approximately 30 minutes before the starting time, so make sure you come early! Once signed-in, you will be given a 15 minute time slot with an adviser. Drop-ins are currently being run virtually.

Call (248) 370-4567 to request a drop-in. Available dates will be listed below.
