·        Ask your professors if they would be interested in becoming an advisor, if not, ask them if they can suggest someone

·        Ask your friends if they know of a faculty/staff member

·        Select someone who can advise, attend meetings and functions

·        Attend a Student Organization Advisor Board (SOAB) meeting to help identify potential advisors.

·        Ask a Student Development Center Coordinator
