First-Year Mandatory Advising (FMA)

 

We have concluded Spring 2026 First-Year Mandatory Advising (FMA).

If you have not completed your First-Year Mandatory Advising, attend Drop-In Advising to speak with an ATLAS advisor.

  • If you are a non-CLA first-year student interested in changing your major to CLA, you will need to meet with an ATLAS advisor during Drop-In Advising to get the process started. Visit our Drop-In Advising page for advising hours, modes (in person or virtual), and instructions.

    If you are unable to sign into Drop-in Advising hours, please call our office at 562-985-7804. 
     
  • If you no longer wish to pursue a CLA major, visit the Academic Advising at ºÚÁÏÍø website to learn which Advising Center to contact for your First-Year Mandatory Advising requirement.

If you have questions about the FMA process, please call our office (562-985-7804) or attend Drop-In Advising hours. ATLAS is happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
