Current students will most likely meet with your Academic Advisor at least once per semester, but often more. There are several reasons students may find their advisor as a good resource, for course registration suggestions, if they want to change a major or want to explore a new one, if they are struggling in a class, or need a referral to a resource. It can be overwhelming to know what to ask. Here are some good questions to consider:
How flexible is this major?
What classes are required for this major ?
Can I change my major? How?
Can I withdraw from a class? How will it affect me?
How many classes should I take every semester?
How many free electives can I take? Do you have any suggestions?
What kind of careers can I pursue with a degree in this major?
Am I on-track to graduate?
Do you think I need to get a higher degree? What should I do to prepare for graduate study?
Should I pursue a minor area of study? What minor would be most beneficial for my career path?
Is an internship required for this major? Would one be beneficial to me?
Would I be able to do a study abroad experience with this major?
What other campus resources do you suggest I utilize?
Where can I get tutoring?
Do you suggest taking online courses? Why or why not?
