Contact Your Academic Counselor
General Information for Current Students
Graduate College academic counselors can help you with questions about:
- Forms and deadlines for graduate students
- Academic standards
- Credit applied to graduate degrees and certificates
- The implications of changing/adding graduate programs
- Graduate College policies
- Thesis/dissertation concerns
If you are exploring graduate programs at the University of Oklahoma, you can find admissions counselor contact information on the Graduate Admissions website.
If you are newly admitted and you need to be advised for enrollment, contact the academic unit offering your graduate program.
Short questions can often be answered quickly by email, but more complicated issues may be easier for you to discuss in person. The Graduate College uses the iAdvise system for student appointment scheduling.
If you are not in the Norman area, ask your Graduate College counselor about arranging a Skype appointment.
