Major and Career Exploration

1:1 Academic Advising

Any student who is unsure of what to major in, at any academic level, can schedule a 1:1 advising session to discuss major or career exploration. You don’t have to be a current Gateway student to meet a Gateway advisor about major exploration. Make an appointment using our online scheduling system or call 928-523-4772.
