Welcome to the Academic Advisement Center at Jacksonville State University! Please familiarize yourself with the services we offer and how we can assist students in achieving their academic goals and objectives. We exist to provide academic advisement to undergraduate students that are either undecided in their major or are not served by a college. Please note the following information as every student type is different; therefore, the location of a student's academic advisor varies.
  • Current or returning students that have declared or intend to declare a major are advised by the department of that major. You should contact your respective department to meet with their academic advisor.
  • Current or returning students that are an undecided major should contact the Office of Academic Advisement to meet with an academic advisor.
  • First Time Freshmen (entering college for the first time) are required to attend Gamecock Orientation (GO!) and will be assigned to a GO! Advisor who is a faculty member. During your first semester, you will be reassigned to an advisor in the department of their declared major. For more information on GO!, please visit Gamecock Orientation.
  • First Time Transfer Students (entering Jacksonville State University after attending another institution) are instructed in their Admission Acceptance Letter about contacting an academic advisor in your declared major for academic advisement.
  • Students that have not applied and been accepted to Jacksonville State University must apply for admission and be accepted before class registration can take place. Please visit Undergraduate Admissions for more information regarding making an application to attend.

We look forward to serving your academic advisement needs!
