Advising
Undergraduate Advising Office
Asian American Studies Advising is:
- the place to go to explore Asian American Studies as a major and minor
- for degree-planning for current majors
- to get more information about AAS Departmental Honors
- to discuss post-graduation plans
- a place to get support during your undergraduate journey
- as well as to find out about Asian American Studies courses and faculty
The undergraduate advisor is usually available on a walk-inbasis. Appointments are preferred. Prospective students/families/visitors are encouraged to make
an appointment.
The Center is located in the Geography Building, GRG 220. GRG is near the corner of 24th Street/Whitis, across from the Littlefield House. Should you have questions, contact the Academic Advisor, Kenyatta Y. Dawson, at 512-232-9468 or kydawson@mail.utexas.edu.
Advising Audits
One of the best tools for advising is an advising audit. This is a computer-generated list of all your classes, as they apply to your degree plan.
You may also create and view your audits online using IDA, the Interactive Degree Audit. This option is available at all UT computers which have utACCESS, and you may also access IDA via ROSE.
AAS Advising bars are not disciplinary measures:
They are simply a tool we use to ensure students who can best benefit from advising actually take the time to come into our office. Advising bars are placed on your record just before registration. To get an advising bar removed, you must come in person for advising in our office or email/phone requesting that they be removed.
