Advising

Please feel free to visit our drop-in hours (details at top of page) or gulliver@austin.utexas.edu for general inquiries. A good rule of thumb is to utilize the drop-ins or gulliver e-mail for questions that would not involve looking up your academic record. For anything else, let's have a conversation! You can set up a meeting through the links below:

Last name A-O: Mitchell's Bookings Page

Last name P-Z:  David's Bookings Page

For internal transfer information, please see our English Admission page.

Other inquiries from current or former UT students may also be directed to our virtual front desk or e-mail listed at the top of this page. Please note that our availability may be limited during high-traffic periods. If your inquiry involves Rhetoric & Writing course enrollment, contact our colleagues in that department at rhetoric@austin.utexas.edu. For Creative Writing Certificate questions, please visit the Creative Writing Certificate website.

Welcome to the university! We look forward to working with you. Your first advising step is to sign up for orientation through New Student Services. As part of your orientation, you’ll meet one-on-one with an Academic Advisor. Because your registration time is tied to your orientation session, there is no registration advantage to meeting with an advisor prior to orientation. If you have a pressing question, though, please feel free to send it to gulliver@austin.utexas.edu.

Thank you for your interest in studying English at The University of Texas at Austin. Prior to your admission, our Office of Admissions will be your primary contact. In addition to the English website, some of the links below may be particularly helpful to our future Longhorns. Good luck!
