The name and email contact for your advisor will appear on your PAWS account in early September. At the department orientation on August 29th you will receive instructions and advice for working with your advisor. However, if you have academic related questions over the summer, your Department Chair, Program Assistant or Assistant Dean are available.

Q:When is my academic department orientation session scheduled?
A: The department orientation will be held on Monday, August 29, 2016. You will be receiving an email and/or announcement regarding this orientation session. The orientation session will review your first semester sequence, course enrollment, department policies and procedures as well as faculty and staff introductions.
Q: How do I find out about department procedures and policies?
A: In the middle of August, the department will send you an email with a link to the department policies and procedures.
