What We Do
Undergraduate Advisors are a part of the support system available at Pratt, and we welcome your questions and conversations. We are uniquely positioned to help you plan your schedule, define and reach your educational goals and properly satisfy graduation requirements. Advisors are also your first point of contact for any general questions about navigating policies and procedures or finding the right campus support resource.
Entering first-year students will be assigned an advisor based on their declared major. Once assigned, your advisor’s availability and appointment booking can be viewed through your Starfish Student Success Network.
Please check your Pratt email regularly. This is our primary form of communication with you; we send important information about advising and registration to your Pratt emails and expect you to be responsible for that information as well as important deadlines which are listed in the academic calendar. Please note: once you are a Pratt student, we will not respond to or use non-Pratt email.
