Advisement

Criminal Justice and Criminology majors must meet with an academic advisor before registering each semester.

To find out who your assigned advisor is, check your WINGS account.

Advising Policies

• • Students are responsible for keeping track of their progress toward their degree.
  • Students are responsible for making sure to complete their graduation clearance packet three semesters before they plan to graduate.
  • Students should arrive at their meeting with their advisor prepared. They should draft a list of preferred and alternate courses for the next semester. Also, they should come prepared to ask questions about course selection, preparation for graduation, and career planning.
