Section BEG3A

After a 3 week period of not meeting in class, our next session will be covering Academic Advisement and will be held in our regular room, 3-190 at the same class time, 9:05am. Lateness will be frowned upon and absences will only hurt you for when you must register for next semester’s classes in November.

Here are step-by-step instructions on how to prepare for your advisement session.  It is important that you complete the assignment and come prepared for your FRO advisement session.    

Please follow these three easy steps:

Step One:  Using your home or campus computer log on to http://www.baruch.cuny.edu/advisementsession/  and review L.U.C.Y.’s on-line advisement session.

Step Two: Complete the registration schedule (course selections) on the back of this letter.

Step Three: Bring your completed registration schedule (course selections) on the back of this letter, a pen and a highlighter to your in-class advisement session.

I attended this workshop and got a sense that maybe more students showed up then anticipated by the advisors. There were a couple tables set up in the room with the refreshments where students could talk to advisors but the level of traffic, I think, prevented a lot of people from getting the opportunity to talk to them. Maybe next time they should refrain from mentioning refreshments. 😀 They did give  information in folders that I found useful pertaining to selecting your minor, the form for declaring a minor and requirements for the different schools at Baruch.

I went to the academic advisement workshop on thursday at 12:30. It was not what I expected, there was so many students that I waited 30 minutes to get into the room. They were not prepared for the large amount of the students that attended. I was unable to get any information out of the workshop, and did not get a folder that contain all the informations. However they did apologized for the situation and sign everyone’s agenda.
