University Advising – welcome

Starting in fall 2026, we’re updating advising locations on the Flagstaff Mountain campus to make it easier to find advising support. Learn more about our new advising hubs, what’s changing, and what’s staying the same: Explore Advising Hubs and Updates.

To support the advising office moves, drop-ins are paused until the week of August 3, and will resume on Tuesday, August 4 at 1 p.m. MST.

We are here for you

Academic Advisors guide and support students every step as they progress to graduation. Advisors help all students with selecting a major, building a degree pathway, selecting classes each term, and navigating opportunities or resources that support their goals.

Find your advisor

Students are assigned an advisor upon admission who specializes in their major area of study.  If a student changes their major their advisor may change to reflect this new direction.

Undergraduate students

Every undergraduate student at NAU is assigned to an Academic Advisor.

• Find your advisor’s name and contact information in your LOUIE account.
• Review the menu items under “Talk to an Advisor” for more details on how to schedule an appointment, drop-in, or reach out for help.

Graduate students

Depending on your graduate program, you might be matched with an Academic Advisor, a Faculty Mentor, or a Graduate Coordinator or sometimes a combination of these roles.

• Refer to the Academic Advising for Graduate Students webpage for details on connecting with your academic advisor.

Connect with your advisor

Advisors are available in-person, by email, phone, and Teams. For the most up-to-date information on your advisor’s availability, log into the NAU appointment planner for appointment and drop-in days, times, and locations.
