Advising for Fall 2008

Fall registration begins for Seniors on Tuesday, April 8, and opens up for everyone else gradually over that week. Make sure to check the UVM Registration schedule to see when you may begin registering for Fall classes.

I’m setting aside enough 20 minute appointments over the next week or so to meet with all 30 of my advisees. I’ll be available to answer any advising questions and to help review your choice of courses for the fall semester. If you’ll be a senior planning on graduating in spring 2009, you should definitely come to see me before registering so that we can make sure you’ll be set to graduate.

Those of you who are currently in your freshman year are required by the College of Arts and Sciences to meet with an advisor. If you’ve already declared a major other than English or Canadian Studies, you will need to meet with your advisor from that department or program. Once you have met with an advisor he or she will remove the registration hold from your account. If you don’t have an advisor remove that registration hold, you will not be able to register.

English majors and minors can find the list of Fall 2008 courses from the Department of English online at the department’s website. On that same page, you will also find the list of courses that fill the A, B, C, D, and senior seminar requirements. It’s also worth checking the Summer and Fall course listings from Continuing Education. Note that registration for Fall courses from CE opens on August 1.

Here are a few quick links that you will need when planning your courses:

BEFORE COMING TO SEE ME, ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE A GRADUATING SENIOR, MAKE SURE TO RUN A “CATS REPORT” TO SEE WHAT REQUIREMENTS YOU STILL NEED TO FILL. If possible, print a copy and bring it with you to our meeting. That will speed up the process considerably. Also, please do your best to pick your courses before our meeting.

Here are the available time slots I have in the coming days. Please e-mail me right away to book an appointment. I’ll fill in the taken spots on this form as I hear from you on a first-come, first-served basis.
