Undergraduate Peer Advising

Are you looking for an answer to a quick question? Do you want to know more about what to expect in a course? Looking to find out about the process for changing your major to computer science or informatics, or adding a computer science minor? See one of our peer advisors!

Our peer advisors are highly accomplished computer science and informatics majors, some of whom who are double majoring and some who are doing a minor. They're here to help you!  

Drop-in peer advising is held in the Lederle Graduate Research Center Lowrise Room A114; no appointment is necessary. 

Note: We follow the UMass Academic Calendar, so peer advising is only available on days that class is in session. Additionally, peer advising will follow the university calendar (i.e., when a Wednesday schedule is followed, Wednesday hours will be followed) unless otherwise posted here. There will be no peer advising on university holidays.
