Each faculty member will have a sign-up sheet on his or her office door. Please go by your advisor’s office and sign up for a time that fits into your schedule. Please do not call the faculty member or the administrative assistant and ask them to put you down for a time.

Please work out a tentative schedule for spring semester and bring it to your advisement session. If you are not sure which courses you need, go by the TSTM office and someone will make a copy of your advisement sheet for you. Also, bring your work schedule to your advisement session if this will be a consideration in your class times.

During your advisement session you will be asked about possible summer school classes. If you are planning to go to summer school, please be sure that your advisor makes a note of the courses you are interested in for summer.

Please be prompt for your advisement session and if you are not going to be able to make it, call your advisor and let him or her know.
