Advising Staff

  • Shannon Phlegar - Academic Advisor & Internship Coordinator
    • Available for appointments and walk-ins

Walk-in hours

Walk-ins are blocks of time when we see students on a first-come, first-served basis. Walk-ins are limited to 15 minutes maximum. Please schedule an appointment if you need more time. Walk-ins are intended to help alleviate short-term issues, not for long-term planning.

Appointments: Call 614.292.1175

Appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes on the hour and half-hour.

Appointments should be scheduled for long-term planning conversations, major issues that require discussion, curriculum planning and/or revisions, and career planning discussions. Please do not schedule an appointment for quick questions: come to walk-ins, e-mail, IM, or call us.

Please check in for appointments at 141 Townshend Hall.
