Plan, Prepare and Execute: Meeting with a COE Advisor

Advising is a multi-step process that makes sure you are in the right courses, meeting requirements, and discussing plans to get you through to graduation. As Advisors, we follow the same general steps you will see below, with a bit more context provided by our professional training and years of experience.

Determine the type of appointment you need: The COE student advising office offers a variety of appointment options to students. Drop-in appointments are best suited for quick questions regarding courses or making an adjustment to a class schedule. For services such as changing your major/minor, course planning for an upcoming semester, or a graduation check, you are encouraged to schedule a 30-minute appointment. In-person and drop-in appointments can be attended in-person or virtually (via Zoom).
Review your account for holds at my.unt.edu: Check your Tasks in MyUNT for holds and to-do list items such as Student Financial Obligation, Advising Required, Transcript Hold, and others. Click on those titles if they appear to learn more. If you see advising required, you will need to meet with your academic advisor.
Run a degree audit at mydegreeaudit.unt.edu to find out what you have already accomplished, and what you have left to graduate: Detailed instructions and visual aids for running and understanding your online degree audit can be found here: https://registrar.unt.edu/online-degree-audit
Determine the number of hours you want to take in the coming semesters—fall, winter, spring, and/or summer: Consider the following factors to create a balanced schedule: work obligations, personal life, and other commitments. In addition, do you receive financial aid? Check with Student Financial Aid and Scholarships to see if you need to be full-time, part-time, or have other requirements.
Make a tentative plan for the courses you want to take: Your degree audit will help you find out what is left to get you through to graduation. Look up class descriptions at catalog.unt.edu. Be sure to look at the prerequisites for each class. Lastly, bring the plan you created to your next advising session.
Register for classes: Use https://my.unt.edu to search for and add the classes that you are going to take.
Check your UNT email regularly: Stay up-to-date with correspondence sent from the COE student advising office and the university by checking your UNT email account regularly.
