Advising Guidelines 

• Advising is available to all students and strongly encouraged.   
• A sign‐up sheet to meet with your advisor will be posted on your advisor’s office door. 
• It is the student’s responsibility to sign‐up for an advising appointment. If you do not participate in advising, it is assumed that you understand the process and take responsibility for your registration.
