Undergraduate Advising Resources
CSULB is committed to students graduating in a timely manner. CSULB advisors play a crucial role in this commitment and helping you navigate to your degree goals. Many advising centers at CSULB have drop-in hours available to you, but we encourage you to make an appointment through the online scheduling system called Beach Connect.
Advisors assist students with many of CSULB’s registration and degree planning functions, including:
- Degree Planner
- General Education Requirements
- Declaration or Change of Major
- Educational Planning for Major Requirements
- Academic Rules and Regulations... and many more.
Select a category below to view the available advising resources. You can also identify advising services in your major and/or specialized programs in your MyCSULB Student Center under the "Advisor" section.
All first-year students are required to attend a mandatory first-year advising workshop for their first two semesters:
- Fall (to plan for spring registration)
- Spring (to plan for fall registration)
If you are a member of a special student program as outlined below, you will primarily be advised by your Special Program advisor and continue to coordinate with your college advisor.
- International students are primarily advised by their major advisor. However, the Center for International Education (CIE) provides immigration advising and support via International Students and Scholars Services (ISS).
- Student Athletes will be advised by Bickerstaff Academic Center for Student-Athlete Services (BAC)
Mandatory First-Year Advising:
- Fall Semester:
All first-year students participate in Fall First-Year Student Advising to help you prepare to register for spring classes. Advising begins in October with class registration taking place late November/early December.
Through this process, you will meet with either your College/Department advisor or the University Center for Undergraduate Advising (UCUA).
Look for an invitation via email directing you to the right program for your Fall First-Year Student Advising. Please read it carefully to determine how to schedule your appointment for this very special event. Your registration appointment indicating the day and time you can register for spring classes will be on MyCSULB in late October.
- Spring Semester:
Spring First-Year Student Advising is required of all first-year students. Through this process, you will meet with either your College/Department advisor or the University Center for Undergraduate Advising (UCUA). Advising begins in March with class registration beginning in late April/early May.
As you prepare for your sophomore year, we require all first-year students to participate in the program prior to registering! Look for an invitation via e-mail directing you to the right program for your Spring First-Year Student Advising.
If you are a member of any of the special student programs listed below, continue to coordinate with your major advisor and your Special Program advisor.
