How we can help you
Our office provides comprehensive academic advising to support your success in the College of Business.

Finally, as you approach graduation, we provide guidance on degree clearances, ensuring that you have successfully met all the necessary requirements to receive your diploma.
Guidance for Semester Scheduling
To make the most of your advising sessions for semester scheduling, we recommend the following approach for the accounting major, business management major, and real estate & insurance minor:
- Step 1: Meet with a CoB Advisor: Discuss your core College of Business course requirements and ensure you are selecting the appropriate business courses for your degree path.
- Step 2: Meet with Academic and Transfer Advising Services: Following your meeting with a CoB advisor, connect with the Academic and Transfer Advising Services to address any questions regarding general Stony Brook Curriculum (SBC) requirements.
