Advising

Each undergraduate student is assigned a faculty and/or professional academic adviser who is available to discuss opportunities and career plans in the student’s chosen field and to plan and approve coursework to meet departmental and university requirements. Students are urged to consult their advisers when questions arise.

All students are required to enter a PIN in order to access registration. Undergraduate students receive their PIN from their adviser.

Department and College advisers and advisers in Academic Affairs are also available to answer questions and interpret policies regarding university requirements and academic procedures. Where necessary, Academic Affairs, under the authority of the Provost, provides the standing interpretation and application of policy. 

Co-terminal students are required to meet with the academic adviser to plan co-terminal shared and non-shared graduate courses. A Graduate Co-terminal (GC) Hold is placed on the student's registration after the initial semester of co-terminal enrollment, until the required eForm is submitted with the declaration of courses. After the eForm is fully approved by the adviser, academic unit, and Academic Affairs, the hold will be lifted.
