How to Find My Advisor

All students enrolled in a College of Business (COB) major are assigned a specific advisor. Please see your assigned advisor regularly; we recommend communicating once per term. To find your assigned primary advisor:

  • Go to Beaver Hub.
  • Click the Success Team tab. Your assigned primary advisor will be listed there.
  • Click on their profile to schedule an appointment or read more about how to reach them.
  • Use the Appointments tab in Beaver Hub to view, cancel, or reschedule your upcoming appointments

The following students can meet with any COB advisor and should look at multiple advisors' availability prior to scheduling.  Please find an advisor associated with your campus.  The Advising Team page will specify whether an advisor meets with Corvallis campus, Ecampus, or Cascades campus students.

  • Current OSU students interested in changing your major to the COB.
  • Students enrolled or interested in a COB minor or certificate who are not in a COB major.
  • Students not enrolled in a COB program but requesting access to a College of Business class. (This can be done through a drop-in.)


Drop-in Advising

Drop-in appointments are available both in person or over Zoom throughout the term.  Drop-ins are typically 10 minutes long and primarily help with urgent registration issues or immediate concerns.  Drop-ins are for quick questions and are not to be used for degree/grad planning, GPA calculations, etc. If you have a registration hold on your account, please schedule an appointment with your assigned advisor rather than signing up for a drop-in.

  *Note: hours listed are subject to change or cancellation due to holidays/advisor availability
