This web page serves as the primary resource for staff responsible for maintaining Advisor/Advisee data within PeopleSoft Campus Solutions. Correct assignments ensure that students see the correct advisor information in myUMBC and their Student Center, and that faculty have appropriate access to their advisee rosters in the Advising Center.
