Advising
Freshman Advising
All freshmen are advised through the University Advising Center. After you register for orientation, your advisor will contact you to inform you of any testing requirements you need to complete and provide you with a link to register for a 20-minute virtual advising appointment. Be sure to complete your pre-orientation modules prior to attending your advising appointment. During your advising appointment, please have any transcripts of dual credit coursework or test score results (AP, IB, etc.) on hand. Students are encouraged to complete advising prior to attending orientation. Advising is offered during the freshmen 2-day orientation program but space can be limited so you’ll want to have your advising complete prior if at all possible.
Transfer Student Advising
All transfer students are advised through the academic department of their major. After you register for orientation, you should contact your academic department to schedule an advising appointment. Different departments are handling advising appointments through virtual meetings, phone appointment, or email, so talk with your advisor about your preferred mode of advising. Don’t forget to complete your pre-orientation modules prior to your advising appointment. During your advising appointment, please have any transcripts of your previous college coursework on hand.
Graduate Student Advising
Graduate students are often academically advised through a separate orientation offered by their academic department. If a departmental orientation is not offered, students should contact their academic department to schedule an advising appointment.
