Philosophy Advising

Academic advising is available to all Philosophy majors and minors throughout the academic year, and we look forward to meeting with you -- come with a specific question or to simply chat about a Philosophy major. Advising in Philosophy is a collaborative process. Many logistical questions — e.g., how to withdraw from a course, how many credits a minor requires, how many credits must be taken in residence — can be answered with a quick Web search or on this university reference page. Note, too, that if you are a Philosophy major in the college of A&S, you are required to consult with a Philosophy advisor before class registration. Questions? Please contact Philosophy's Director of Undergraduate Studies, Dr. Ericka Tucker
