We want students to be connected to departments early to ensure a smooth transfer transition. At your leisure please review the learning outcomes for transfer appointments. During the advising appointments, we recommend structuring your time to include the following:
- Begin the discussion around applying for a major and identifying the student’s area of interest.
- First-quarter class registration - balance schedule, credit load, courses needed, back-up course option.
- Transfer credits and final transcripts (making sure they have been submitted)
- Answer general questions from the student and plans for success (study abroad and how they make it fit, double majoring, minors, denied from competitive major - what’s next, etc.)
- Course registration override or add code needs
- Register for classes (Group Advising rotation F appointment only)
