Graduate Degree and Certificate Students
Every graduate student is assigned two advisors for the duration of their program:
Your Graduate Program Advisor is a faculty member in your academic department who provides academic support, advice on course selection, research opportunities, industry preparation, and more.
Your Academic Advisor is a professional staff member in your academic department to help with the logistical aspects of your studies, such as academic policy, registration processes, degree progress and graduation processing, and University compliance.
For non-academic student life issues, graduate students may contact MET’s Enrollment & Student Success office, located at 1010 Commonwealth Avenue, 1st Floor. Call 617-353-2980 or email metess@bu.edu.
If you are a graduate degree or certificate student studying online, please visit BU Virtual for more information about online study.
Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Students
MET Enrollment & Student Success assists undergraduate degree (on-campus and online) and certificate students with course selection and registration, transfer units, graduation, and interpretation of Boston University and Metropolitan College academic and administrative policies and procedures. All students enrolled in an undergraduate degree or certificate are assigned an academic advisor for the duration of their program.
Nondegree Students
One does not need to be in a degree program to take courses at MET or to take advantage of advising. If you have advising questions regarding coursework and planning involving graduate or undergraduate programs, please contact Admissions & Enrollment Services at 617-353-6000 or met@bu.edu.
