| All of the biology majors
in a particular class are advised by one faculty member, who is your
advisor until you graduate. If you have a strong preference
for a different biology faculty member as your advisor, you may speak
with the department chair.
There are two regular advising periods during the year: in late October/early November, just before registration for the next Spring semester; and in mid- March, just before registration for the following Fall semester. When the Registrar sends out a notice about the advising period, your advisor will post a sign-up sheet on his or her office door; be |
sure to sign up for an
appointment early, especially if you anticipate any unusual scheduling
problems.
During your first advising session after you declare a biology major, your advisor will help you work out a tentative schedule for the rest of your college career, to make sure you can meet all the graduation requirements. From then on, you should keep track of your progress toward completing the major requirements. |
