When Should I See an Academic Advisor?

Academic advising is key to student success. Students are encouraged to visit their academic advisor each semester to review academic progress, plan for future term enrollment, prepare for internship application submission, and to discuss career goals and opportunities. The following schedule is a guideline of important times to seek academic advisement:

First term of enrollment - to discuss course equivalencies from other institutions, course substitutions, questions concerning the SASS audit, provisional application procedures and sequencing of courses.
Prior to the end of the spring semester - make an academic advising appointment to review your planned schedule for multiple term registration. Sophomores are strongly encouraged to attend a College Connection advising session in the Spring semester.
Prior to February 1st and August 1st, meet with your academic advisor to review your SASS audit and internship I or II application. Faculty advisor signature is required.
Two semesters prior to graduation - meet with your academic advisor to review your SASS audit to determine if you are ready to file an Intent to Graduate..

Transfer Tips

Students who plan to transfer to the UCF College of Education from another institution are encouraged to attend an advising session prior to attending transfer orientation. Group advising is conducted at transfer orientation.
