Advising
Providing exceptional, personalized academic support to UT PGE students is our top priority. We strive to give you the individual care and support you need to make informed decisions about your degree plan while encouraging you to consider opportunities that will enrich your academic experience on the Forty Acres. We value the experiences and ideas you bring to the department and aim to help you meet — and even exceed — your goals.
New Students
Incoming PGE students will attend advising and course registration during new student orientation. Please be sure to register for UT Orientation after accepting your offer of admission. Also make sure you have a laptop computer that meets our minimum hardware requirements.

A note about emails and phone calls: During peak advising periods (such as during registration advising or at the beginning of the term), please allow additional time for email responses. Because your academic advisor will be hosting advising sessions and monitoring email, phone calls and voice messages regarding advising and registration will not be regularly monitored.
