Academic counselors are available in the School of Business Administration as soon as you enroll in the Ole Miss Business School Family. Our academic advisors are here to support your decisions and to assist you with your academic planning throughout your entire time in our undergraduate programs.
The School of Business Administration Undergraduate Student Services and Academic Advising (UGSS) provides academic advising for all undergraduate business majors.
Appointments
Individual advising sessions are available by appointment Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM.- 5:00 PM. To make an appointment with an academic advisor, please sign-up through our on-line appointment scheduler. Please note that appointments may be limited during peak times such as priority registration. Appointments must be scheduled online.
Walk-In Advising
As a walk-in, please sign in at the front desk in Holman 220. Please note that at certain times of the year a large number of students may attempt to receive academic advisement at the same time.
“Avoid “Rush Hour
Ways to avoid a long wait as a walk-in in the UGSS for Priority Registration:
Come early in the morning. Average wait times are:
30 minutes or less between 8:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.
35 to 45 minutes between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
Worst times to come? Between 12:00 noon and 2:00 p.m. We split the lunch shift between 12:00-1:00 and 1:00-2:00, but we still have to eat!
Please note that the office closes at 5:00 p.m. We will ensure that all students who have “signed in” are seen before we leave for the day. To be able to do this during very busy periods, we may close the sign-in list early.
The number of students seeking academic advising in the UGSS dramatically increases as we approach priority advisement and registration.
Phone Advising
Academic advising is not available via telephone.
Email Advising
You may contact an advisor at advising@bus.olemiss.edu for answers to general questions. Please note that we are unable to address personal academic concerns electronically.
