Faculty Advising: For the period of Advance Registration each semester, you may be assigned a faculty member for clearance and schedule advising.  This will generally happen when you are a continuing major who is close to or above 60 total credits, i.e. Junior status.  Each assigned faculty advisor has their own method of clearing and advising you; contact with them at the appropriate time will be YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
