Advising
First-year students are assigned to faculty pre-major advisors until they declare an area of concentration (typically in the sophomore year), at which time they choose a major advisor from their department or program. The faculty pre-major advisor is assigned by the dean of first-year students based on the Statement of Academic Interests that all first-year students are required to submit on or before July 1. Please note that if you do not submit your Statement of Academic Interests by the deadline, you will be randomly assigned to a faculty pre-major advisor.
