Academic Advising
The advising office for lower division management majors is Undergraduate Studies in Business. However, once in the upper division (300/400 level) Management program, students receive advisement through the department. Students can schedule individual advising appointments by calling (815) 753-1124 or stopping by the Management Department, Barsema Hall 245.
