a full academic audit of their major and general education, declare
their major and/or concentration if it has not been done and ask
general questions. Where this service does not require a prior
appointment, students interested are asked to contact the Art
department front desk so that your files can be gathered prior to
the session and transcripts can be evaluated. Sessions are as follows: 4/17/2007 4-6 p.m. South Hall Residence Hall Activity Living Room 4/18/2007 12-3 p.m. Art Building Room 154 4/26/2007 11:30-2:30 p.m. Old Main Art Sattelite Room 3139 |

| Declared
your major yet? All students that have not declared their major by 60 credit hours will have a hold placed on their record removable only when a major is declared. To declare your major, start with the University Advising Office. They will give you an academic audit, tell them you would like to declare your major and they proceed to the main art office. If a hold exists you will need to go to the College of Fine, Performing and Communication Arts Dean's Office in the Linsell House across from the UGL. This is real. Don't let it keep you from getting into classes this fall. |
