Navigate: Scheduling Appointments
Beginning March 2, 2020, LSU is using the new Navigate platform for students and advisors. This program can be used to schedule appointments with the LSU College of Agriculture Office of Student Services (advisors) and your major-specific faculty advisors. Navigate is available for download on both Apple and Android devices.
To make an appointment with Brandon Guillory or Jennie Sparks in the Office of Student Services, please follow the steps below:
- Download the Navigate app to your phone.
- Select the “Appointments” widget
- Select “Academic Advising”
- Select “College of Agriculture”
- Select the reason for your visit
- Select the date and time available.
The Navigate app will send you a confirmation email/text to let you know the appointment has been created. Students can check-in for their appointments at the front desk in room 106 Woodin Hall. Please have your LSU ID number ready to check-in. If you have trouble scheduling an appointment in the Navigate app, please reach out to the LSU College of Agriculture Office of Student Services by sending an email to agstusv@lsu.edu or by calling 225-578-2065.
If you are an undergraduate major or minor in Agricultural Business and need in-person or online advising from the Undergraduate Advisors Mr. Ator, Dr. Biswas, or the Director of Undergraduate Studies Dr. Fannin, please use the Navigate app to schedule an advising appointment. You may also send an appointment request via email to agbuadvising@lsu.edu by stating the date and time that you need advising.
Alternatively, you contact one of the advisors below by phone or email to set up meeting appointments or walking up if an advisor has open-door advising hours.
