Students can schedule meetings with their academic advisor via the MSU Student Information System (SIS). After you login to SIS:

• Navigate to the “Academic Progress” tile on your homepage.
• Select “Advising/Tutoring Appointments” from the left navigation.
• Complete the required fields and review appointment information
• Select “Book It!” to book your appointment – you and your advisor will receive a calendar invite for your MSU Outlook email calendar 

If you have a previously scheduled meeting that you no longer want or need, please reach out to cancel or reschedule so that we can offer that appointment to other students.

All Madison students should schedule a meeting with their academic advisor at least once per semester. These appointments can cover:

• designing a graduation plan or anything related to future semesters
• major/minor exploration
• preparation or signing of ROTC forms
• conversations about long-term goals, career interests, graduate/law school
• follow-up from an express appointment
• developing a relationship with your advisor – this takes time and effort from both student and advisor!

To join a meeting scheduled to take place via zoom, use the link and password posted by the advisor in the JMC Zoom Directory.

Students can schedule a meeting with JMC's Field Experience Coordinator Lauren Michalak to discuss internships and education abroad opportunities via SIS. Beginning Feb. 11, 2026, Lauren Michalak is also available for drop-in advising on Wednesdays from 1 to 4 p.m. in 329 South Case Hall.

Students can make appointments with Karissa Chabot-Purchase, Assistant Director with Career Services, via Handshake.
