Designated Advisor

Overview

Designated advisors are added in SIS by a student (nobody else can add a designated advisor except the student or a system administrator). These advisors can see academic and personal information for the student in SIS, however they are not able to release holds. A designated advisor can be any staff or faculty member at the university.

Begin by logging into the SIS at case.edu/sis with your CWRU Network ID and password.
