Advising & Enrollment Information

This page provides information on advising and registration procedures for all current sophomore or higher undergraduate (BS-degree) School of Computing students.

Note: First-year (i.e., all new students coming straight from high school) receive advising and registration help via the OneStop Student Services office.

Procedures

School of Computing department procedures for advising and registration clearance are outlined as follows:

  1. Schedule an advising meeting with your faculty advisor (depending on the semester) or your academic advisor by SSC Navigate at least one week in advance.
  2. Last names beginning with A-L schedule the meeting with their faculty advisor in the fall and M-Z schedule the meeting with their faculty advisor in the spring. (You can meet with your faculty advisor during off-semesters if you want, they are there to help.)
  3. For all advising meetings, download a copy of your course sequence sheet which will help guide you as you prepare for your appointment:
  4. In order to pick the correct course sequence sheet, please verify your "catalog term" first. Don't know where to find your catalog term? Check your Degree Works audit or your Academic Profile under the myClasses tab in your my黑洞社区 portal.
  5. Once you have the correct worksheet, fill it out to prepare for your advising appointment. Make a list of questions you would like to discuss with your advisor.  Technical electives can be found here for Computer Science and .
  6. Plan to arrive a little early.
  7. Students who are late may need to reschedule.
