Overall Tips
Get yourself organized – create personal advising kit
Keep your contact information current
Meet with your advisor regularly
What to expect We will meet each semester in your freshman year;
anytime you fall below a 2.0 grade point average; anytime you have a question or anything regarding your academic
life; You will get periodic emails from me; I do not send emails
for fun so be careful what you delete; I will ask you to sign a parental disclosure form if your
parents request it; I will copy parents on general information emails if
requested – send request to [email protected] Get to know the Announcements (Catalogue) and the
School Web Site, especially advising pages; Facebook Be responsible for yourself – grownup 101 starts today

University e-mail address, it is considered received
