Academic Advising and Course Registration

Universities require students to complete different combinations of courses to earn a degree. U.S. universities often require undergraduate students to take both general education courses and courses related to their majors. Graduate programs also have some required courses and others that are optional. It can be confusing to understand the requirements and how to create a study plan so that you can graduate on time. This workshop explains how you can work with an academic advisor to identify the courses you need to take. You will also learn how students commonly register for courses so that you are familiar with the basic steps when you learn about your specific university’s process.
