Does anyone know how to get a new advisor? My current advisor is new this year and has continued to give me false information every time we’ve spoken and I’m so close to graduation that I can’t afford lies. I’ve never had to switch before and can’t see a spot in buckeyelink/oncourse.
TIA.

I’m sorry to hear that. I believe officially you can see any academic advisor, otherwise any transaction you make with your current adviser must be documented.

This would be done through your advising office. Not office's policies will allow you to simply switch. I hope you're able to get help.

I honestly never spoke to my advisor, I sat down and looked at what classes were available each semester and broke down a class schedule for every semester off of my degree audit! If you need help I’m willing to help you just shoot me a message!
