Standard Advising Periods

Each semester there is a several-week advising period in which you make an appointment to see your advisor and make decisions about the courses to take the following semester. During this time, advisors post on their office doors grids of available times to consult with their advisees. It is your responsibility to sign up for an appointment. Registration for summer sessions occurs during the spring registration period. See Registration Procedures.
