Letters and Sciences is the academic advising home for undergraduates who are deciding on a degree-granting major. Here is where each student, with the assistance of an academic advisor, can explore and prepare for the challenging and exciting path to a major and graduation.
Our staff is dedicated to providing personalized advising to our students. We are committed to helping each student make a smooth transition into the degree-granting major that best fits them.
Current Letters and Sciences students may schedule an appointment with their assigned advisor using the Schedule Now button. Note: We have a new appointment system. You will log in with your UMD directory ID and password.
We strongly encourage all our students to visit the Current Students page for important information and documents about academic advising, advising requirements, and registration.
University of Maryland students who would like to change from a degree-granting major into Letters and Sciences, must first attend a Change of Major Workshop.
