All new transfer students are required to meet with an advisor AND attend an orientation session before they can register for their first semester at the U.

  • If you know your major, then make an appointment to meet with your departmental advisor as soon as you have been admitted. University College's Departmental Advisor List can be used to find out how to contact your advisor.
