Much More Prepared

It's that time of year again! As the end of the fall semester quickly approaches you should already be thinking about what classes you are wanting to take in the spring. But before you make your class selections, be sure to check out these helpful hints for advanced registration.

• Contact your academic advisor soon to schedule an appointment to discuss how your semester is going and to make your course selections for spring. Also, talk with your advisor about course options beyond next semester along with other important information about your major.
• Be prepared for your advising session. Go to the appointment with a list of questions you need answered.
• Don't be afraid to "pick" your academic advisor's brain. Use him/her for the excellent resource they are- this person is an expert and is here to help guide you along your way toward degree completion. 
• Ask your academic advisor for more information on internships, study abroad, and other opportunities that will enrich your educational experience.

Advanced registration for the spring semester will be held November 5-18 and is determined by the number of credit hours that you have completed at the time of registration, which does not include classes you are currently taking. To see a full schedule of advanced registration or for more info, please visit the Office of the Registrar . Don't forget to check your student account for any academic or financial holds (THIS INCLUDES PARKING TICKETS) before attempting to register for classes. And be sure to schedule an appointment with your advisor today!
