Advising
The department and the university offer a variety of resources to assist students.
Undergraduate Advising
All family and human service and all family science majors are assigned an advisor. Our department advisors are a key student resource. Students are empowered to make informed decisions and take ownership of their academic goals.
Students are strongly encouraged to schedule an advising appointment every term. Your advisor is committed to assisting you with selecting courses and evaluating progress toward completing Towson University’s graduation requirements.
To find your advisor, log into Towson Online Services. SA Self Service> Learner Services> Academics> View My Advisor.
