I don't see an appointment time, what should I do?
If you don’t see your appointment time in Navigate, here are the most common fixes:
-
Check your email confirmation – Navigate usually sends an email (and sometimes a text or app notification) with the appointment details. Make sure the appointment was confirmed.
-
Make sure you’re looking in the right place – In Navigate, click on Appointments → Upcoming to view scheduled times. Sometimes students accidentally look under “History.”
-
Refresh or log out/in – Occasionally, appointments don’t load correctly. Logging out and back in, or refreshing the app/browser, can fix it.
-
Verify your account – Make sure you’re signed in to Navigate with your A&M–Texarkana EagleID, not a personal account.
-
Appointment might not have been finalized – If you clicked out before confirming, it may not have saved. Try scheduling again.
If you still don’t see your appointment:
-
Reach out directly to the office you scheduled with (Advising, Tutoring, Career Services, etc.) to confirm they have you on their schedule.
-
Or contact the Advising Center or IT Help Desk at helpdesk@tamut.edu / (903) 334-6603 if you think it’s a technical issue.
