It's Time for the Semester Check-In!

We hope your spring semester is off to a great start!  It is hard to believe that we are already three weeks into the semester!  Our office has been busy preparing for the upcoming summer and fall semesters in addition to searching for an individual to fill a vacant Assistant Director position.  We want to sincerely thank you for your patience during these last few months and are delighted that Leonard Mansfield recently joined our team.

We will be calling you soon…

In preparation for the upcoming Summer and Fall registration window, we would like to check in with you regarding your plans and program progress.

  • Starting on Friday, February  3, we will begin contacting all students via telephone.
  • We will be calling the number we have on file for you, listed in Banner.
  • We will be attempting to leave voicemails for all students who do not answer their phone; however, many students do not have their voicemail set up or the mailbox is full.

Who will be getting a phone call? 

While an advising appointment is not required, we want to make sure that everyone has an opportunity to speak with their advisor prior to the registration period opening.

  • During this call, MBA and Certificate students will be assisted with scheduling an appointment with your advisor to discuss any registration questions or other program related items.
  • MSA’s and MS-ST’s will be called, but you should email their advisor if they have registration questions.
  • If you are planning to graduate in May, the person calling will be able to verify that the proper paperwork has been filed and answer any questions about commencement. Please do not be alarmed; we are just checking in.

What is the timeline? 

If you would like an advising appointment, it is imperative that you schedule an advising appointment early, as our calendars tend to be full during the last half of March.

  • Appointments will be scheduled beginning the week of February 13.
  • Keep in mind that registration opens at 1:00pm on Friday, March 24.
  • Be sure to check to review the Top 10 Dates to Know for Spring 2017.
  • If you do not receive a phone call by February 13, please call the office. Either the number (if we had one) on file was incorrect or the message we left was not delivered to you.

If you have any questions or concerns sooner than that, please do not hesitate to contact our office.
