Advising

Need FA 332 to graduate? Want to take DTC 477 to further hone your understanding of multimedia authoring? Like to take more photography courses? Want to take that cool Visual Culture course?

Wellllllllllllll, unless you get advised and have the hold released on your registration, you may not be able to get into these courses. And as many of you veterans know, studio and lab-based courses fill up fast since there are a finite number of seats.

In case you do not know, here is the process:

1. You sign up for an advising time by going by your advisor’s office. If you do not know whom your advisor is, then you can write Teresa Phimister @ phimiste@vancouver.wsu.edu or me (grigar@vancouver.wsu.edu) for this information. Only Harrison Higgs, John Barber, and I are advising this semester.

2. You plan out your schedule for the semester you plan to attend school. Right now, you can be advised for both summer and fall.

3. You come to advising with your plan, and you get advised.

4. After your advising session, your advisor walks down the hallway and gives Teresa your updated folder; she studies the folder to make sure the plan is in order and, then, releases the hold on your registration.

5. You register beginning April 9th or so. To get an exact time, visit MYWSU.


Remember, you cannot register unless you get advised and the hold on your registration released.

Even if you are graduating, you need to make an appointment to see your advisor. With all of the changes in personnel this year, it would behoove graduates to make contact with new faculty. The DTC is sponsoring a party for graduating seniors, so at the very least come by and get information about this event from me.
