- These appointments are intended for more complex or multi-question advising, for example, four year course planning, study abroad planning, probation meetings, SAP appeals, degree audits, and questions regarding out-of-state transfer courses.
Academic advisors meet with public health students by appointment and drop-ins during regularly scheduled business hours. Advising by email is also available. Available appointment slots can be found here: Trellis Advise.
