       Undergraduate Advising for IT Majors - Fall 2022

 

  Towson's advising program is designed to help you navigate through your academic career and help you prepare to leave Towson to pursue a career or additional edcuation. 

Each semester, the university will place an advising hold on your account. You may have other holds placed on your account as well. To check if you have a hold(s), login in to Online Services (PeopleSoft), go to Self Service / Student Center and look under the Holds section (see example below).

If you have an advising hold, you will not be able to register for the next semester until that hold is released. I will not release that hold if you do not participate in the advising process.   If you do not have an advising hold, you are not required to have an advising session, however, I am still available for advising if you so desire.

The CIS Advising Hub located in YR208 is available to assist you with many of your advising questions.  The Hub is your first point of contact with advising questions and for help to get started completing your Decgree Completion Plan (DCP).  CIS student advisors are available Monday-Thursday from 9am-5pm and Friday from 10am-4pm during the semester.  To get started, visit CIS Advising and contact the CIS Advising Hub at 410-704-4776.



Your degree requirements are based on when you began attending Towson University and when you declared your major.  Your official catalog year can be found on your Academic Requirements report in Online Services (PeopleSoft).   

January 2023 registration has already started (you can enroll anytime).  The first day for Spring 2023 registration is Tuesday, November 8th. 

Your actual Fall 2022 registration date will vary based on your student status (number of credits completed, etc.)  Your actual registration time (enrollment appointment) can be found in Online Services (PeopleSoft).  To avoid delays in registration, send me your Registration Proposal (listing what classes you propose to take next semester) well in advance of your enrollment appointment (follow steps below).

Follow the procedures below for academic advising:
 
  1. Review your Academic Requirements report in Online Services (PeopleSoft).
  2. Complete this Registration Proposal form to identify courses that you wish to register for next semester.  
  3. Email me (shilberg@towson.edu) your Registration Proposal (from step 2 above).
