Find Your Advisor and Advising Information
Your advisor's name and contact information is on the Degree Audit Report (DARs). The Degree Audit Report provides a personalized listing of courses and requirements, marking them as already completed, planned, or still needed. Login to eServices, click Academic Records, Degree Audit, Request a Degree Audit, Run Declared Programs, and View Audit.
You can also utilize the Graduation Planner which uses the most up-to-date information available from the student record system and Degree Audit, including transfer and in-progress courses. This helps you plan your academic journey at Metro State.
We believe you and your advisor share the same goal: your success. Communication is key to the success of a meaningful professional advising relationship. Reach out to your advisor as soon as you can after your completion of orientation. Help your advisor know you as a whole person, from your interests and skills to your life goals.

Undergraduate Advising
Academic advisors in the College of Sciences are available to help navigate the unique and sequential nature of majors in the science, computing and mathematics degree fields. We assist students with questions or issues while they progress through their degree program after being admitted to the university. Professional and faculty academic advisors can assist with:
- Explaining requirements from pre-major to declared major status.
- Discussing course and registration issues.
- Answering questions related to the transfer process.
- Helping with petitions, appeals and exceptions.
- Providing resources and referrals to career explorations, internship and community engagement opportunities.
- Connect you to university resources like tutoring, mental health counseling, and the student parent center, and many more!
- Serving as a listening ear along your academic journey at Metropolitan State University.
Undergraduate pre-major status
All newly admitted students are in pre-major status. Students select their intended major(s) when they apply for admission to the university; students are then assigned an advisor and given a pre-major status into the program. To be a formally declared major, a student must:
- Successfully complete all pre-major requirements.
- Meet GPA requirements (this is major dependent).
- Pre-major and GPA requirements can be found on your degree audit.
- Submit a program declaration form, which is reviewed and approved by the department in which the major program resides.
- When selecting your major, be sure to select ‘First Major’ to transition from the pre-major to the full major.
