Contact a College Adviser

Weinberg students are assigned to a College Adviser in the winter quarter of the first year and work with that person until graduation. Students who transfer in to Weinberg from other schools or universities are assigned to a College Adviser as part of their welcome to the College. College Advisers are faculty members who hold regular advising hours each week and see students by appointment.

  • Request an appointment online through ConnectNU or call 847-491-8916. Advisers meet in-person or on Zoom. Students access ConnectNU by logging in with your NetID and using the Connect feature. Students can also view resources in Your Services, and use Messages to interact directly with an adviser.
  • Drop-in advising is available on Zoom from 1:30-4:30 pm (Central) on business days. Drop-in advising is for brief questions and time-sensitive matters. To request a Zoom drop-in time, please call our office at 847-491-8916.
