Advising

The Hugh Downs School of Human Communication provides academic advising on a scheduled appointment basis Monday through Friday. Walk-in advising hours will be available during critical registration periods at the beginning of each semester. Dates and times for walk-in advising will be announced on the website when scheduled.

Our academic advisors help students successfully transition to the university and make progress towards their educational goals and graduation. Communication majors are encouraged to meet with an advisor at least once a year.

Our Advisors:

Carol Comito 
Kyle Fray
Dan Schwimmer
Debra Daly
Barbara DeDecker

The advising offices are located on the 1st floor of Stauffer Hall, next to the undergraduate student lounge. Remember to review your DARS report prior to your appointment and bring a notepad to your appointment. Appointments are in-person on the Tempe campus.
