Appointments are required to be scheduled in advance to meet with an advisor. Students can schedule an appointment with their advisor by visiting the Advising Scheduling Calendar. Once on the scheduling webpage, you can see your advisor’s calendar by following these steps:

• Select I have an ASU ID
• Under Select Program choose The Polytechnic School
• Select the advisor for your program

If you are unsure of your advisor’s name, find an advisor for your major by visiting Meet Your Advisors. Select a time that works with your schedule and complete the appointment requirements to reserve an appointment time. Please be sure to indicate ‘Requesting phone appointment’ when scheduling an appointment with an advisor.

Undergraduate students: Be sure to watch this helpful video about how to use DARS before your appointment.

Prospective students must contact our office to request an appointment.

DARS stands for Degree Audit Reporting System. This document can be found on your MyASU under the section My Programs and eAdvisor. You will then click on My Progress Reports (DARS) and run either a Degree Audit (shows what you have left to complete as well as any transfer work) or an Unmet Audit (shows only what you have left to complete).

This document is a live document tailored for each individual student and will update if you run a new one after enrolling/dropping a course or when a grade has posted. You can see your remaining requirements signified by a red X, or what you have completed, which is signified by a green check mark. Courses in progress will also appear on your audit in the required area. We recommend that you check out this helpful video about how to use DARS.

Advisors look at this before and during every appointment. If you have any questions, you can make an appointment with your advisor and go over how to read your DARS.
