Academic Advising Appointments: Use Navigate Slug Success

Appointments are available during the regular academic quarter - Monday through Friday - both in person and over Zoom. In summer, appointments are over Zoom only. Find available times on Navigate Slug Success or email us at lalsadvising@ucsc.edu to set up a time.

Also feel free to send your question to lalsadvising@ucsc.edu or lalspeer@ucsc.edu. You can ask us about classes, requirements, research opportunities, study abroad, and anything else you are wondering about. If we think it's better for a longer discussion, we'll suggest an appointment.

Please feel free to start with us when you're not sure who to ask! You may also find conversation starters or answers in the links to the left (or at the bottom of the page if you're using your phone).

Meet your LALS Academic Advisor and Peer Advisors

Ursula Oberg, LALS Undergraduate Program Coordinator

My favorite part of this job is talking to students: in person, on Zoom, or over email. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you want to talk about your academic, career, or life goals. I am a slug alum, and someone who got a lot out of my undergraduate experience here. I can't wait to help you make the most of your time at UCSC by getting to know more about you and your interests.

Make an appointment with me on Navigate Slug Success or email me at lalsadvising@ucsc.edu.
