Welcome to the School of Social Work’s Office of Academic Advising!!

Here is where you will find your academic advisor plus so much more to help you with being successful during your journey in the University of Texas at Arlington’s School of Social Work. So, whether you are a BSW, BSW-Intended, or an MSW current or newly admitted student, the following information may be for you.

Academic Advising Appointment Availability

Academic advising appointment calendars open four weeks in advance.

While the scheduling system may sometimes display advisors as “booked” through the end of the semester, this does not mean that no additional appointments will be available. This message is automated language generated by the booking system and simply reflects that future weeks have not yet opened for scheduling.

New appointment times are released on a rolling basis, so students are encouraged to check back regularly as additional availability becomes accessible.

Same Day Appointment

Have quick questions, time sensitive needs, and last-minute schedule changes? Schedule a same-day appointment, either in-person or virtually, on Wednesdays.

Appointments are only 20 minutes and the link for scheduling opens on Wednesdays at 8:30am. Appointments start at 9:00am and are available on a first come basis. Be sure to select a service type (e.g., virtual or in-person) when scheduling your appointment.
