How to Schedule or Cancel an Appointment

How do I schedule an appointment with my academic advisor in Undergraduate Academic Services using WiscCal?

Log into the scheduling application with your UW NetID and Password. Click on the link for "visitors".

An alternate route:

Step 1: Use your NetID and password to log onto MyUW from the wisc.edu homepage. Please click on your "Student Center."

Step 2: At the My UW homepage about halfway down the page on the left there is a box labeled “WiscCal- Make an Appointment.” Select the academic advisor of your choice.

Step 3: The advisor’s schedule should appear on the screen. Green blocks indicate time that the advisor is available. Red blocks indicate that the advisor is NOT available. Select a time that the advisor is available and works best for you.

Step 4: The next page will prompt you to provide a reason for this advising session. (This is just so your advisor can prepare for the meeting). In preparation for any advising meeting you should bring a copy of your DARS and a list of questions. Click Create.

Step 5: Congratulations, you have scheduled your meeting. The confirmation screen offers an email reminder if necessary.

How do I cancel my appointment with my academic advisor using WiscCal?

Step 1: Repeat Steps 1 & 2 from the top.

Step 2: Select the meeting you had previously set up (should be highlighted in blue).

Step 3: Check the box labeled “Yes, I wish to cancel this appointment.”

Step 4: Then click “Cancel my appointment.” This will bring you back to the MyUW homepage. In the WiscCal-Make an Appointment box click “Return to Home.” This will reset the action as if you had never made an appointment.
