Welcome to Academic Advising in Biological Sciences!

We have a team of academic advisors dedicated to guiding students through the Biological Sciences and Microbiology programs. Students can view their academic advisor assignment on Hokie Spa under View your General Student Information or in Navigate.

Students are encouraged to meet with their assigned academic advisor to discuss:

  • registering for the next semester's classes
  • course support and tutoring options
  • college success skills such as time management practices and study strategies
  • dropping a class
  • withdrawing from a class
  • resigning from a semester
  • choosing a secondary major and/or minor
  • taking classes at another institution
  • studying abroad
  • completing undergraduate research
  • discussing career or post-college options and preparation
