Registration is coming, which means advising appointments. Here’s some quick tips on what to do before, during, and after your advising appointment.

Before Appointment
- Create a potential schedule with one or two alternatives (This means GStation for anyone that came in 2005 fall and after.)
- Know requirements of classes you want to take

During Appointment
- Be prepared to change the schedule
- Be respectful – you aren’t the only student the advisor has

After Appointment
- If you make a big change to the schedule email the advisor
