How do I prepare for an academic advising appointment?
Whether you are meeting with your advisor in person or via some other medium, you should have ALL the materials that are applicable for that conversation, such as:
- A prepared list of classes you are considering
- A schedule of classes
- The most recent copy of your tentative or official degree plan
- Your UTA Undergraduate catalog
- An unofficial transcript, if requested
- Course syllabi
- A generated list of questions about resources or concerns you may have
- Materials gathered from a plan-of-action from a previous appointment
- Keep these materials all together in a special notebook for easy access
