It's almost never too early! If you are a freshman considering professional school, you are smart to begin planning now!
But, READ FIRST!
Pre-professional advisors encourage you to read advising websites before contacting an advisor because the websites answer questions many students have, tell you procedures and how to make appointments, and make you aware of important events. After reading the websites, you'll know the best timing and how to consult a pre-professional advisor; advisors can address your questions not covered by the websites, or clarify any confusion you might have!
