Schedule an Advising Appointment

Not sure who your advisor is? Visit our “Who is my advisor?” webpage and use the search box to find your advisor based on major and last name.

Please Note: Your advisor’s available appointment formats (such as in-person, email, phone, or Zoom advising) will be listed in the Additional Details section of the appointment set-up form.

Preparing for your appointment:

  • Watch your MTSU email for updated instructions.
  • Familiarize yourself with DegreeWorks, the degree-audit system available in your PipelineMT account.
  • Zoom, phone, or email appointments: Be ready with computer access, in the event we need to guide you using online resources.

(Want to keep these instructions available while you schedule your appointment?  Here’s a tip!  Right-click on the “Schedule My Appointment!” link and choose “Open in New Window”.)
