When you enter one of the CLS programs, you will be assigned an academic advisor from among the program faculty. You MUST meet with your advisor at least once per semester, before you can register for the next semester. Bring any questions or concerns that you have when you meet with your advisor. If you can't meet with your advisor during his office hours, let him know, via voice mail or e-mail. We will do our best to schedule a time that meets your schedule.

When you meet, your advisor will review your progress toward graduation, and help you choose a schedule that will meet your needs. However, it's your responsibility to be sure you have completed all the courses you need to get your degree.

At any time, if you need information or referral for assistance, your advisor can help. If we can't answer a question, we will help you find somebody who can.

If you need to make scheduling changes during a semester, please contact your advisor. Dropping a course can postpone your graduation.
