Neuroscience Advising

Advisors for Neuroscience

Online Advising now available! Please select Neuroscience Major Advising - Online when scheduling your appointment in Navigate. 

Pre-orientation advising is available to help new transfer students plan a course schedule for their first semester. Students interested in pre-orientation advising should schedule an appointment in Navigate or email neurosci@gmu.edu. Pre-orientation advising is not a substitute for actual orientation, where valuable program information is shared with all incoming students. Students who attend a pre-orientation advising session MUST still attend their advising session during orientation.

Getting in touch with a Neuroscience advisor is easy. Please schedule an appointment through NAVIGATE (instructions are below). 

Dr. Greta Ann Herin
