You may make an appointment with the academic advisor to discuss the issues related to enrolling in a course, meeting prerequisites, credit transfer, etc.
The appointment can be made via the web-based scheduling system as follows:
- Log in to MyFIU
- Under Academic Advisement, select My_eAdvisor Student Dashboard or click the Graduation Cap logo with the FIU letters.
- Click Appointment Request, then choose your preferred date and time. You may book up to two consecutive appointments per day if needed.
- Check your FIU email for appointment confirmation.
