If you’re a declared Black Studies major or are interested in the major, you’ll need to contact the Department of Black Studies for advising.

Advising is shared between a professional advisor and the department chair. Check your MavLink homepage at the bottom right where it says "Contact My Advisor" to see who you are assigned to.

We're Here to Help

Our faculty advisors are here not only to help you plan your schedule but also to answer questions about:

  • Programs of study
  • Career options
  • Graduate and professional school

You may schedule an advising appointment at any point in the year but should note that the heaviest advising time at UNO is typically during the months of October, for the spring semester classes, and March for fall semester classes.

Our Advising Model

The College of Arts and Sciences uses a two-advisor model. Our students begin with an advisor in the Arts and Sciences Advising Center, then transition to their major department for advising.
