Advisement

Where do you go for advising?

  • Schedule an appointment with Cheryl for registration advising or for any questions using using Navigate or by contacting Cynthia.
  • Have you earned 44 or fewer credits or are undecided on a major? You need to see Cheryl to have your advising hold removed prior to registering.
  • Have you earned 45 or more credits? See an advisor in your major(s) to have your advising hold removed.

What to bring for your registration advising meeting (mandatory)

You must complete and upload the Advising Forms(link below) to the dropbox link included in our email announcement the day before your advising appointment with Cheryl. Your hold will not be removed if you do not submit them, and schedules cannot be approved if they are not complete. 

 

Special Note for Freshmen

If you are in ENG 111, we will be signing you up for Honors ENG 151 (3 credits); M/W 10:10-12:05. As you look for your remaining classes, use the following major-specific guides. If your major isn't listed, no worries--use DegreeWorks and sample four year plans  for guidance and we'll review everything at your advising appointment. And review the Verrazzano course list for times and section numbers!
