YOU AND YOUR ADVISOR

Your advisor is a member of the faculty of the Sport Studies Department. The purpose of having an advisor is to assist you with course selection, academic progress and academic interests. Your advisor will help you understand the requirements of the Sport Administration major.

16

Each semester, your advisor has access to a copy of your academic record. This academic record lists all courses you have completed, those in which you are currently enrolled, GPA, and other information.

Students should schedule a meeting with their advisors during the advising period for scheduling purposes and other advising related questions if they should arise. Your advisor is here to help you but

YOU MUST MAKE THE COMMITMENT FOR YOUR OWN EDUCATION AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR CHOICES.

Academic advising is a joint responsibility between advisor and advisee. To get the most from your education, the student should:

1. Become familiar with your advisor’s office hours (posted on his/her office door) early in the semester. 2. Be prepared for your advising appointment. Have a schedule of courses planned with multiple options. 3. Accept responsibility for your academic progress and other important choices. 4. Keep notes and a record of each advising session. 5. Follow through with appropriate action after each session. 6. Become familiar with general education, major, and graduation requirements. Don’t let your advisor carry all of the responsibility. 7. Consult with your advisor if you are ever in academic trouble. 8. Don’t miss deadlines. Know when to schedule and drop or add courses. 9. Treat your advisor with respect and try to develop a positive relationship with him/her.

*ADVISING PERIOD Please Note: WATCH FOR ANNOUNCEMENTS OF THE ADVISING TIMES!

CHECK ONLINE SCHEDULE FOR REGISTRATION TIME.

*ALWAYS INCLUDE YOUR ID# WHEN EMAILING YOUR ADVISOR OR DEPARTMENT CHAIR WITH ACADEMIC QUESTIONS.
