WHY IS ADVISING IMPORTANT? Advising is a shared partnership As an advisee you will be responsible for making sure – you know where to find the information you need to make important academic decisions. – you know the policies that effect you such as the suspension and probation policy and requirements for your major. – you have met your requirements for graduation. Your advisor will help you to navigate all of this information and to assist you with developing your academic, career and personal goals. Undergraduate Academic Advising

Check Your Degree Audit Often! University Academic Advising Your degree audit is a double-check of your degree requirements. If you received AP, IB or Dual Credit for classes from high school, be sure they are showing up on your degree audit as “T” for transfer. If not, follow up with the Registrar’s Office (for dual credits, you must send an official transcript from the community college to get credit).

HOW DO I MAKE AN ADVISING APPOINTMENT? University Academic Advising All Pre-COSD and Pre-Nursing (and freshman Pre-Social Work) students are advised in the Advising Center in 351 Waldron. You will receive an from Loretta Estes in the Advising Center, letting you know whom you should make an advising appointment with, and giving you instructions for making the appointment in AgileAdvisor.

FERPA FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS and PRIVACY ACT The university will not release information about a student from records, except directory information, to people (including parents) other than a specified list of exceptions without obtaining the written consent of the student by having the student complete a FERPA form, available online and in the Registrar’s office. Undergraduate Academic Advising

IMPORTANT POLICIES YOU NEED TO KNOW – COURSE WITHDRAWAL INFORMATION FOR FALL SEMESTER You receive a “W” on your transcript. You are allowed only 5 withdrawals the entire time at RU The withdrawal period begins when schedule adjustment week ends until – October 16 th for UNIV100. – October 23 rd for 3 or more credit hour courses. – WHAT IF I GO BELOW FULL-TIME (12 hours?) You will NOT need to move out of your residence hall unless your behavior is disruptive. You WILL need to notify your Resident Assistant if you fall below full-time status. Dropping from full to part-time status during a semester may affect your financial aid. Check with the Office of Financial Aid. If you are a student athlete or international student please check with your advisor and financial aid before going below full-time. Undergraduate Academic Advising

IMPORTANT POLICIES YOU NEED TO KNOW – REPEATING A COURSE The grade earned in the repeated course will replace the original grade in GPA calculations; however the original grade will remain on your transcript. You are allowed to repeat only 3 courses – After you have used your 3 repeats you are allowed an unlimited number of retakes (except for major classes in COSD, Nursing and SOWK). Both grades are used in the cumulative GPA calculation as if they are two separate classes (retakes count the same as taking new classes) Undergraduate Academic Advising

HOW MANY GRADUATION HOURS? University Academic Advising The minimum hours to graduate in COSD and SOWK is 120 hours; Nursing requires 123. Specific requirements for any major can be found in the university catalog. 120 hours/8 semesters is at least 15 hours a semester to stay on track without taking summer school courses.

To graduate from RU – COSD - minimum overall GPA of a 2.0; – NURSING – minimum overall and major GPAs of 2.5; – SOWK – minimum 2.7 overall GPA and 2.8 Social Work GPA.
