IMPORTANT ADVISING INFORMATION

Student self-registration

Students regardless of rank may register themselves for classes during their registration window (see dates below). Students must meet with their advisor - EACH SEMESTER - to receive an individual pin number before scheduling classes. For more information on self-registration, go to Student Self-Registration Guide.

Undeclared and non-degree students must meet with an advisor in the Academic Advising Office, Room 322 Turley Center, by appointment.  Students who have declared majors must meet with their assigned advisors in their major.

It remains vitally important that you meet with your academic advisor before you schedule your classes. Your advisor will help to ensure that you take courses in the appropriate order to increase the likelihood that you will graduate within your timeframe. Some courses are offered only once per year or once every two years. Working with your advisor will ensure you don't miss a needed course. Your advisor can also serve as a mentor, providing valuable information about your chosen field.
