Getting Organized

A Plan of Action

Keep registration materials in one folder to use throughout your college career, including:

• Degree Audit Report (DAR)
• 4-year plan
• Registration procedures and date

Before your appointment

• Print your DAR (Degree Audit Report) from eSIS. IMPORTANT: You will have to reschedule your appointment if you don't bring your DAR
• Highlight all the categories marked with a MINUS SIGN
• Print a copy of the Degree Plan/checklist for your major
• Create a tentative plan for the next two, three or more semesters
• Check the online catalog course descriptions for any course prerequisites
• Create a class schedule for next semester by checking the online class schedule and taking special note of the number of remaining seats
• Select alternative courses for those courses with fewer than 10 remaining seats
• Write down questions for your advisor

Bring to your appointment

• Your DAR (Degree Audit Report)
• Your plan of action for at least the next two or more semesters (including list of courses with prerequisites)
• Your class schedule plan for next semester (courses, days and times)
• Your questions or concerns

After your appointment

• Check the online class schedule often, especially the day before you register to make sure the classes you want are still open
• Check back with your advisor if you incur any problems registering
