FAQs

  • Why am I receiving notifications for my students when they schedule appointments with other advisors?

    Any advisor assigned to a student (primary, secondary, etc.) will receive notifications regarding any activity by that student within CU Navigate. Many advisors have created rules in Outlook and/or Gmail to archive these messages into a subfolder automatically.

  • Why am I receiving notifications for students not assigned to me as their primary advisor?

    All primary and secondary assigned advisees are displayed via CU Navigate. In some cases, departments are removing secondary advisors to address this concern. Otherwise, many advisors have created rules in Outlook and/or Gmail to archive these messages into a subfolder automatically.

  • What is the difference between an appointment summary and a note?

    The advising appointment summary is appropriate for documenting appointments with your students. These reports are available in the student view. Notes are most suitable for recording email conversations, drop-in appointments and other interactions unrelated to a scheduled appointment (e.g., sticky notes).

  • How do I file an appointment summary?

    You will see your recent appointments from your home page (scroll down). Select the appointment you would like to report. Select actions > add appointment summary. It will auto-populate some of the details from the scheduled appointment; however, you should verify the arrival and departure time on the left-hand side.

  • Can I edit an appointment summary?

    Yes. Open the appointment summary you would like to edit. The “Edit Report” option is in the bottom right-hand corner. If you are unable to see that option, please email cunavhelp@clemson.edu.
