Planning Your Degree
You are here
Matriculated degree-seeking students are required to meet with their assigned advisor during their first semester to create an academic plan.
The purpose of this required meeting is to:
- Introduce students to their advisor.
- Review academic expectations and degree requirements.
- Explore educational and career goals.
- Build an academic plan that aligns with those goals.
Creating an academic plan early reduces the risk of taking unnecessary courses, helping students save both time and money.
