Advising for Two Cores 1988 2013

Which core 1988 The 1988 Core applies to: All students entering prior to fall 2013 All transfer students entering prior to fall 2015 1988 The 2013 Core applies to: All freshmen entering fall 2013 and beyond(including transfer freshmen) All transfers entering fall 2015 and beyond 2013 Freshmen should be advised to be careful about seeking advice from upperclass students, since they will be under different cores. Some new-core language will be used over the next few years with students who are still under the old core. Be sure that students under the old core, especially transfers, know that we are in transition. They need to understand that although THEY are still under the old core, some of the elements of the new core will substitute for requirements they must meet in their (old) core.

Which core Catalog years: …2012, 2013X, 2014X,… 1988 Catalog years: 2013, 2014, 2015,… 2013 Remind students to USE THEIR PROGRAM EVALUATIONS. Students under the old core will see the old core requirements reflected in their program evaluations. Students under the new core will see the new core requirements reflected in their program evaluations.

Which core Green advising folders (Red INCH folders) 1988 Blue advising folders (Purple INCH folders) 2013 Departments who change folder colors by cohort: use green stickers to indicate old core, and use blue stickers to indicate new core. When you work with a student, the FIRST task should be to determine which core she is under. (This affects everything else!)
