The English department supports majors by offering a comprehensive advising team based on your personal interests. You will find us on the 7th floor of the Helen C. White Building, next to Memorial Union. As you approach Helen C. White, you will find a door tucked into the corner that says floors 4-7. As soon as you walk through those doors, take the elevator up to the 7th floor. As you exit the elevator, go left and you will find the English advising suite of offices down the hall to your right.
If you are not sure who best to help with your question, contact the Academic Advising Manager.
