Late Advising will open May 7, 2025. On May 7, the Course Selection eForm will become available under Step 2 below.
NOTICE: Advising for summer and fall will occur simultaneously. That means students must include both summer and fall classes on their form. If a student only plans to take summer courses because they are graduating at the end of summer, there should be a note on the eForm, or it may be sent back for correction.
Students are encouraged to be advised early because advising will employ two systems: Class Search and BOSS will be used for summer advising and Workday Student will be used for Fall. Fall classes are embedded in Workday Student. Students must have activated and prepared their Workday Student account before the advising meeting. The advising appointment may be canceled if the account has not been activated.
Please verify that there are seats available in the courses you select. If not, please indicate whether you will join a waitlist. Also, consider listing alternative courses in case you do not get a seat in your preferred course. If so, please indicate in the notes which courses you are considering as alternatives.
The drop-down menu and headings below will guide students through the steps of the advising process.
Advising Process
The goal should be to finish the core curriculum as soon as possible, so you can incorporate courses for the minor and foreign language sequence as you work your way through the major.
