Graduating this Fall?
Are you an undergraduate planning on graduating this Fall? Run your DARS--if it is green, you are set. If it is not, you cannot graduate. We recommend that you apply to graduate as soon as possible. This is done via the Academic Records page within your Student Center. You will start receiving more information about graduation in November.
Plan Your Spring '23 Schedule!
The spring schedule of classes has been released! With enrollment beginning in November…we recommend make an advising appointment NOW!
Virtual and in-person appointment slots for undergraduates are available throughout the week. You can book ahead with our academic advisors, Sam Dziuk, Madison Hartup, and Alicia Johanning, on Starfish. Be sure to select “Academic Advising (assigned students only)” when choosing a time, since our office reserves more slots for our declared (aka "assigned") students.
Drop-in advising is available for all students on Wednesdays ONLY from 10 AM to noon and 1-4 PM in the Undergraduate Suite (7238 Social Sciences). Drop-in is first come, first served, so we recommend arriving promptly.
