Meeting with your advisor

• It is to your advantage to see your advisor before you register for classes so that you can be sure you’re on target to meet your goals.
• To get an advising appointment that meets your schedule, plan ahead and schedule an appointment to meet with your advisor.
• Prepare for your advising appointment by reviewing the requirements for your major. Also, you should create a schedule, which includes school, work, and family, so that you and your advisor can plan the best schedule for you.
