Program
When candidates begin their program of study, the Director of Academic
Advisement assigns a faculty advisor and provides them with a curriculum
sheet indicating the required courses for their chosen program of study.
Candidates in the teacher education programs are assigned advisors who
are members of the teacher education faculty. Candidates in the initial
baccalaureate Adolescence Education Programs are also assigned a second
advisor who specializes in the area of their liberal arts major. Advisors'
names, office locations, and office hours are posted on the bulletin board
outside the Academic Advisement Office in Spellman Hall.
Advisement
Guidelines
Each
semester, approximately two weeks before the dates set for registration,
candidates must meet with their assigned advisors to discuss their progress
in the teacher education program and to plan their course of study for
the coming semester.
- Make an Appointment
with Your Assigned Advisor.
Candidates are responsible for making appointments with their advisors
as soon as they receive their registration packets in the mail and
well in advance of the date for registration. Most advisors post appointment
sign-up sheets on their office doors.
- Plan a Tentative
Schedule of Courses.
Prior to the appointment with the advisor, candidates should work
out a tentative schedule of courses. The curriculum sheet for their
program of study, information about course prerequisites in the College
Catalog, and the information in Chapter V of this manual, will assist
candidates in planning a tentative schedule.
- Meet with Your
Advisor
Candidates must bring three things to their appointment: their teacher
education folder from the teacher education office, their registration
packet, and their tentative schedule. Candidates should arrive promptly
for their appointment and have the required materials ready. During
this meeting, the advisor will also review the candidate's progress
in meeting the requirements of the teacher education program.
- Follow Through
Although advisors will remind candidates about program requirements,
it is the candidate's responsibility to know what the requirements
are, to meet those requirements and to keep the teacher education
folder up-to-date.
