FAQs
What happens if I do not complete the advising requirement before the deadline?
A registration hold will be placed on your record that will affect your ability to enroll in a future quarter. Please reach out and email gsm-undergradadvising@ucdavis.edu to let us know your reasoning for missing the deadline.
Can I complete the advising appointment requirement through a drop-in session?
No, we want to ensure there’s ample time to review all aspects of your academics, which can only be done during an advising appointment.
