Updates during COVID-19

During this time of COVID-19 Advising will take place remotely for the safety of our students and staff. Please use the following to address any academic concerns:

Students send a VAC message to have quick questions answered.
If you need to complete any type of form, please send an email to commugrad@ucsd.edu with a fillable attachment of the forms. You will be contacted via VAC when the form is completed. Please allow 2-3 business days.
If you need an appointment, please refer to the allotted times on our google calendar. A zoom invite will be sent to your UCSD email the day of your appointment. If zoom is not a viable option, please notify the Advising Office and other accommodations will be arranged.
The Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD) has also updated new resources during this time which can be accessed here: https://osd.ucsd.edu/resources/covid-19.html

The COMM Advising Office is dedicated to continuing our efforts of being students focused and addressing all the concerns of our students despite the crisis we are in. Please do not hesitate to reach out, we are here for you.
