Graduate Advisement
Connecting with your Advisor
For quick questions, emailing your advisor is recommended. For more complicated questions, we recommend you schedule an appointment. LoboAchieve is the best way to see your advisor’s availability and schedule a meeting that works for your schedule.
Current UNM students are required to use their UNM email account for all electronic communication. Please include your full name and UNM ID number.
If you are not yet admitted to a UNM graduate degree program, please email andersongrad@unm.edu and your request will be forwarded to the appropriate person.
For further assistance, you can reach the Anderson Advisement Office at (505) 277-2525 or andersongrad@unm.edu. We are located on the first floor of the McKinnon Center for Management (MCM) Building.
Do not use the LoboTrax Degree Audit to verify degree requirements. The LoboTrax degree audit is only an undergraduate tool. Please follow up with your advisor for assistance with course planning.
