Individual appointments for freshmen and transfer students will start the first week of August, after ECE orientation. Please ensure your Degree Worksheet and Academic Plan are updated for your advisor review, or continue to plan.  

Prepare for Your Appointment

We want to make sure you get all the information you need to register for fall classes with confidence. To do that, your advisor will need you to come prepared with specific information and questions. The following tips will help you get ready.  

• Review Your First-Quarter Major Recommendations
• Review the specific courses recommended by your major so you can build a solid first-quarter schedule. 
  
  First Year (Computer Engineering): Computer Engineering (First Year)
  First Year (Electrical Engineering): Electrical Engineering (First Year)
  
  Incoming transfer students will speak with our major advisors to discuss their first year plan.
