Advising Information
The Global Studies advising staff is here to assist you in reaching your academic goals. The customized nature of this major makes it essential that you meet with an advisor on a regular basis; the responsibility for your success rests with you, the student, to exercise intentionality in your planning and to utilize the resources the campus and Global Studies advising staff have to offer during your time at UIUC. We offer walk-in hours and appointments to discuss any of the opportunities offered in the major, help plan your courses, or discuss your plans after graduation. Global Studies students are not assigned to an advisor. We encourage you to expand your networks and to get to know all of the advisors in Global Studies.
