Required Advisor Contacts

It is essential that students maintain a close relationship with their academic advisors through frequent visits. Students must touch base with the advisor periodically for the following purposes:

  1. To obtain the advisor's approval of the trial schedule prior to registration;
  2. To plan current and future class schedules;
  3. To initiate class changes during the drop/add period; and
  4. To complete the online program evaluation to further map out the academic plan. Transfer students should schedule a conference at the beginning or prior to their first semester at MSU. 
Note: Students are responsible for verifying and entering his or her own schedule electronically. Advisors are not authorized to make official electronic changes to course schedules.
