All incoming students are required to attend orientation which includes both an in-person component, as well as a virtual advising session via WebEx. To have the best schedule-building experience possible, students should read and complete CNMS Advising’s “Before Orientation” task list prior to their advising appointment.
During the orientation advising session, students will be meeting with a temporary advising representative, typically a generalist advisor, under the guidance of the CNMS Advising Team. After completing your virtual advising session at orientation, you will want to forward all advising-related questions to CNMSAdvising@umbc.edu. You will no longer consult with your orientation advisor.
