Take Advantage of Faculty Expertise to Select your Schedule!

Every undergraduate student who is seeking to obtain a degree should speak with a faculty advisor prior to registration each semester. Obtaining an advisor is easy: Call the department where you intend to major (see phone numbers listed below) and ask to be assigned to a faculty advisor. Students who attend a summer orientation session will meet with faculty advisors as part of that program. However, we still encourage such students to contact their major department's office to have a permanent advisor assigned to them after they arrive for classes in the fall.

If you are undecided as to a major at the present time, contact an academic advisor in the Academic Support Center (615-898-2339) or contact the academic advisor in the college which most interests you (see below).

Additionally, students who are required to take ACT/COMPASS prescribed courses can be advised by a counselor in the Academic Support Center who will work with them until all developmental requirements have been completed.

Advising is essential! Don't risk delaying your graduation by taking the wrong classes or taking them in the wrong order. If you are a transfer student, be sure to take copies of your transfer course evaluation and/or your transcripts with you when you meet your advisor.

The academic departments are listed below, along with the location of the department office and a phone number. (A campus map is available online if your browser can display graphics.) If you are not certain which department houses your major, please consult the MTSU Undergraduate Catalog.
