Our focus is to assist you in the positive pursuit of your undergraduate academic experience in the College of Business. Our purpose is to provide a singular point of contact for undergraduates who need assistance and/or information regarding the JMU CoB curriculum, courses, majors, minors and academic programs.

Appointment Procedures

To schedule an appointment with an advisor, email him or her to inquire about available meeting times. Do not expect the advisor to be available for meeting on the same day that you contact him or her. Instead, provide your availability for the upcoming week so that the advisor may pick a date and time suitable to his or her schedule.
