Academic Advising
Have a question? Begin by reviewing our Frequently Asked Questions!
There are many resources available to help you understand your progress.
If you want to make an appointment, please start by completing your ECO “On Track” Calculator. The ECO “On Track” Calculator is a form that you populate using your DPR Summary, and in turn, you can better understand if you are on track.
Other advising resources (sample plans, abroad guidance, etc.) can be found below. Please email eco@smu.edu with your 51³Ô¹ÏÍøID if you have any questions.
ECO Calculator Steps:
- ECO Calculator Forms (Original Version)
- ECO Calculator Forms (NEW Formatted Version)
- Instructions
- Pull your DPR Summary by visiting the "Academics" tab in my.SMU.
- Open the Calculator and enter the corresponding numbers (from your own DPR Summary) in the yellow boxes. The other cells will auto populate and provide information about your progress. *Note you may use either the original or new version for the Calculator.
- You do not need to edit any other boxes, but please by sure to complete the "Step 6: Create a Tentative Schedule for Next Semester" section. You will need to build a tentative schedule to the best of your ability. The "schedule help" resources in the other tabs (flowcharts, sample plans, etc.) may help you. CC guidance can be found in the last tab.
