Academic Advising and Registration

The START Center coordinates new freshman and transfer student advising and registration. Peer advisors from each academic school are available for individual consultation by appointment. START staff also help students choose or change their majors and connect students to faculty advisors once they have selected their majors. Each student is responsible for meeting with his/her advisor, who will aid in determining the student's course of study and scheduling classes.
