Please Note
Can’t see the advising line in the Qless app? This means we have manually closed the line because we are at capacity. Refresh the app or check the Qless website for the next spot in line. If the Qless app or website says the advising line is “closed” this also means the line is at capacity.
If the line is full, consider signing up for one of our registration webinars.
If your questions are not urgent or directly related to registration, please consider checking in for advising the week of March 29th, when wait times are significantly shorter.
If you are looking to request a general degree audit, graduation letter, after degree assessment, or Geoscience field school registration request, please submit the relevant online form. If you have already submitted a form request please do not send follow-up emails—sorting duplicates slows down our response time!
