Undergraduate Major Advising

If  you are an undergraduate student with less than 90 completed hours at Georgia State University, you are required to seek advisement at the University Advisement Center at 25 Park Place. Freshmen will see their advisor in Suite 1400 (14th floor), while Sophomores and Juniors will see their advisors in Suite 1300 (13th floor). Seniors (students with 90 or more credit hours) will see their advisor in their College Office of Academic Assistance (OAA).

Your College of Education OAA Advisor:

• confirm eligibility for entry into teacher education;
• assist you with course selections and schedule revisions each term;
