Undergraduate Academic Advising
Mr. Jim Schneider advises all students majoring in Fisheries and Wildlife, Teacher Education students minoring in Environmental Science, and students wanting to complete a Specialization in Conservation and Environmental Law Enforcement or Marine Ecosystem Management. Mr. Schneider also assists with course overrides (FW courses only), approves substitutions, as well as coordinates the fisheries and wildlife internship program.
If you are not an MSU student and would like to meet with Mr. Schneider, please contact the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife's Undergraduate Adviser Center at (517) 353-9091 to schedule an appointment.
MSU students are encourage to use the Online Advising Appointment System. The appointment system allows MSU students to schedule an appointment at their convenience with their academic advisor. MSU students can also call the Advising Center (517) 393-9091 or stop by Room 40 in the Natural Resources Building to schedule an appointment. Mr. Schneider does accept walk-in appointments if time permits.
How to use the appointment system:
You need your MSUNet ID and password to log on to the appointment system.
While the appointment system displays all half hour appointment times that are available, Jim does accept walk-in advising for those quick questions. Check the "Preparation Notes" in the appointment system for posted walk-in hours.
There may be a time when you must cancel your appointment (ex: illness). The system will allow you to do so, but please cancel with at least 24 hours notice and/or contact the Advising Center (353-9091, fwadvise@msu.edu) directly to let them know you've canceled, so other students may take advantage of the time slot.
