This service is intended for quick questions directed to a UB academic advisor. If the status indicates the advisor is online, feel free to type your question in the lower section of the IM box. The advisor will receive a “ping” of a user and a window with the question will open up. Do not send any personal information such as your Social Security number or person number, as the client is not hacker-proof. The information is sent along “open channels.”
