Appointments may be made up to 21 days in advance. Next-day appointments can be made up until noon the day before.
Virtual Drop-Ins
You will want to make sure that you have created your UNC Zoom account before you begin.

Student-Athlete Advising
Please make an appointment with your Advisor.
You may email your assigned advisor if you have a quick question for them. Your assigned advisor is listed in your Student Center in ConnectCarolina, and advisor contact information is in our directory. Please be sure to include your PID and legal name in your email message. Email responses may be delayed during busy times such as registration periods and the first week of classes.
If you have a very general question, you may email the advising@unc.edu inbox, which is monitored daily by a member of the administrative staff team.
Phone
Call the UNC Advising office to speak with an administrative staff member regarding general questions and urgent situations, Monday – Friday 8am – 12pm and 1pm – 5pm (except University Holidays). Main number: (919) 966-5116.
Phone appointments are available through the online scheduling system. If your advisor does not answer, it is best to leave a voicemail as they may be wrapping up a previous appointment. If you still cannot get in contact, call the UNC Advising office and an administrative staff member will assist.
