The Engineering Student Advising Center (ESAC) assists undergraduate students in the Davidson College of Engineering to increase their level of academic success and knowledge. In part, this is accomplished by helping students understand university requirements, policies, and procedures as well as by fostering a community of support. ESAC works closely with various campus resources and engineering departments.

The Engineering Student Advising Center provides the following services:

• Assistance with course schedule planning
• General Education Advising
• New Student Advising
• Transfer Advising
• Identifying resources for academic success
• Probation Advising
• Pre-graduation General Education review
• Scholarship Information

All engineering students are required to receive academic advising from their concentration department every semester prior to registering for courses the following semester at SJSU. You must see a major faculty advisor in order to remove your "engineering advising hold." ESAC cannot remove this hold. It is the students' responsibility to obtain an advising schedule from their respective departments. However, ESAC can remove academic probation holds.

Students are also responsible for keeping their own academic records. Be sure to bring your records with you for advising, including transcripts, SJSU General Education worksheets, SJSU acceptance letter, advising report, etc.

The Engineering Student Advising Center is located on the 2nd floor of the Engineering Building in Room 242 (facing San Fernando Street). You may contact Therese James at 408-924-3851 or email therese.james@sjsu.edu.
