Make an Appointment
Your academic adviser is available to provide one-on-one support, help create your academic plan, and direct you to additional resources. If you have a question about your academics and don't know who to ask, we suggest starting with your academic adviser.
Steps to Scheduling an Appointment
- Find your academic adviser below by major and click the Make an Appointment button
- Login to Microsoft Bookings with your full Cal Lutheran email address; you will then be directed to the MyCLU login screen
- Once on your adviser's appointment page, choose the type of appointment you would like to make
- Select an available day and time
- Fill in your contact info and other details to schedule the appointment
Please note: There are times during the year when we receive more appointments than usual. It may be difficult to find appointments at the beginning of the semester and before registration.
