University Center for Undergraduate Advising

The University Center for Undergraduate Advising (UCUA) is the primary advising center for:​

  • Undeclared undergraduate students and those interested in exploring major options or identifying a new major,
  • information about University policy relating to major declaration,
  • undergraduate students seeking assistance in creating a strategy to return to good academic standing after being placed on academic warning,
  • information about reinstatement to the University after academic disqualification,
  • GenExcel mentorship program participants, 
  • and information about the University's Beach Pledge program.

 

Congratulations on your admission to °ÄÃÅÁù¿ª²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û×ÊÁϲéѯ! All newly admitted undeclared students will have their first contact with an academic advisor this summer through the Advising & Registration component of SOAR.

Visit the Advising for Newly Admitted Students page for more information.

New undeclared students who need to make a change to their Fall 2024 course schedule after enrolling should meet with a UCUA academic advisor in a drop-in advising session.

UCUA academic advisors are available to meet with undergraduate students in person or via Zoom and can also be reached via email at aa-advising@csulb.edu.

Drop-in advising is available for currently enrolled undergraduate students who are undeclared, students who are interested in exploring a different major or adding a minor, students who are on academic warning, or academically disqualified students who are seeking reinstatement to the University.

Hours of availability and a Zoom link can be found to the right of this message or at the bottom of the page if you are on a mobile device. Undeclared students should visit UCUA Team and Primary Advisors for information about their primary UCUA academic advisor's current drop-in availability.

Drop-in advising sessions are typically limited to a maximum of 15 minutes. 

Students should have their ID number ready to provide to the screener when visiting the Center in person or visiting the Zoom waiting room.
