Advising for Undergraduate Students
Director of Undergraduate Studies
Advising for Summer and Fall semesters is typically scheduled the last two weeks of March; for Spring and Summer (and the Winter intersession) the last ten days of October and the beginning of November. We continue advising as needed (see the sidebar for hours and location). This page and links above provide information about procedures, advising sessions and advisors.
Advising is a very important process for students and for the department and we want to make it both efficient and useful. The department offers for our undergraduate and transfer students two advising options for course registration and one additional option for general advising (see also the workflow picture below). In order to have the advising hold lifted, each student must contact the DUS by submitting:
- Online advising — see the web-based advising form.
Response to the Web-advising form will be provided by e-mail and the student will receive instructions about the courses, advisor's hold, etc. All students, in addition to submitting the Web-advising form, are welcome to schedule an appointment or stop by during the block advising (see below):
- Block of advising times in FPAT 763C — see Advising Sessions for times.
- Individual advising with your advisor — schedule a meeting with advisor (who is my advisor?).
A reminder for students who are planning to graduate in next semesters: be sure to fill out graduation paperwork by early Summer for August graduation, early September for December graduation and early November for May graduation. Submit forms in the College of Engineering to Ms. Rosie Hicks.
