Graduation can be a daunting goal. Like most worthwhile goals, getting there takes careful planning. In order to help you reach your goal, the College of Science and the Department of Computer and Information Technology offers individualized advising for each student. These basic pointers will help you get started:
Advising Holds
If you are a Freshman or Sophomore (less than 58 credit hours) or on probation, you must see your advisor before registering each semester. The advisor will need to remove your advisor hold before you can register for courses.
Graduation Evaluations
When you become a Junior (complete your 58th credit hour), you will need to contact the College of Science Dean’s Office and ask for a Graduation Evaluation. You will return after a few days to discuss the results of your evaluation. You will need to do the same when you become a Senior (complete your 90th credit hour).
Quick Hints
- See your advisor!
- You often need reference letters to go to graduate school or get a job. Your advisor can be one of these references if they know you.
- Some courses are only offered once per year or once every 2-4 years. See your advisor to find out when courses are offered.
- You can’t always depend on courses being offered in the summer. Very few CIT courses are offered during the summer terms.
- Look at your advising sheets for more hints and information. Print one and keep it current.
