A Message from the Student Affairs Team

Office of Student Affairs
(310) 267-5536

Thank you for visiting the Office of Student Affairs. Our goal is to support the endeavors of prospective and continuing students by providing comprehensive and seamless admissions and academic advising, support services, and co-curricular opportunities, creating an inclusive space that honors students’ unique experiences, and liaising with faculty and staff in ways that foster student success.

At Student Affairs, you will find a team of talented student development specialists committed to your success and equipped with a myriad of knowledge and resources to support your academic journey. At our core, we view advising as teaching rather than just course scheduling and paperwork. Therefore, through a collaborative partnership with each School of Music student, we aim to provide you with the necessary tools to make educated decisions impacting your academic, professional, and personal development.

Should you need support at any point, please visit us. We look forward to working with you!

Need help? Come see us!

The Student Affairs team is available to discuss your academic needs via appointments or limited drop-in advising sessions. Students who walk-in without an appointment or during times that are not designated as drop-in advising sessions will be asked to follow one or both of the following options:

  • Drop-in Advising Sessions
    Every week of the academic year, our academic advisors host specific drop-in advising hours students may utilize for brief academic advising questions.
  • Appointments
    For longer, more complicated concerns, students are encouraged to set up an appointment with their academic advisor. To do so, simply make an appointment with a Student Affairs officer or email your academic advisor with your availability and we’ll figure out a mutually agreeable time.
