Advising

You should contact an advisor whenever you have doubts or questions about your academic career, requirements for courses, education abroad, etc. If you are a major or minor in one of our languages, you should see your advisor at least once per semester. Following is a list of Modern Languages advisors. All offices of advisors are located in the Merrick Building unless otherwise noted.  To reach an advisor via telephone, dial (305) 284-4858.  When you are prompted to do so, enter the extension.   Often the best way to reach an advisor is via email. This is especially true during the summer when advisors are away from the University.
