Academic Advising Tips for Psych Students

Don’t wait until your Junior Audit to discover you are behind on credits needed for graduation! Once a semester, students are required to navigate through course catalogs and the registration section of WebAdvisor. Registration can be a period of anxiety for many students, but with this handy-dandy guide and checklist about the ins and outs of registration (courtesy of Dr. Traci Giuliano), you will be one step ahead of the game! For more information and a downloadable copy of the guide, please click here.

We also highly recommend you make time for High Impact Experiences either as part of the major or in addition to it. Here’s a guide specific for students interested in psychology!
