Advising Services for Current Students
MAJOR ADVISING
General Education and Registration Advising
During peak enrollment times, all advisors assist students with preparing to enroll in classes for the upcoming semester. Though, it's never too early to plan ahead! For General Education and Registration support, freshmen and sophomores can meet with the Retention Specialist; juniors and seniors can meet with the Graduation Specialist.
Academic Success Advising
The Retention Specialist provides advising to students on academic notice and provides all students with the necessary tools and resources to succeed academically. Meet with the Retention Specialist if you need help navigating the registration system or need information on University/College academic policies (stop-out, petitions, withdrawals, change of grade, etc.).
Graduation Advising
The Graduation Specialist provides advising to juniors (60-89 units) and seniors (90+ units). Meet with the Graduation Specialist if you have questions about graduation requirements, need help to determine when to apply for graduation or the graduation term you applied for is no longer the appropriate term based on your remaining requirements.
Career Advising
Advising on career planning and preparation, finding a job or internship, resumes, cover letters, interview practice, career assessments and grad school preparation.

Advising for any current Titan who would like to explore any of the Arts degree paths. Please email the Student Success Center.
