Advising
Students are required to meet their academic advisor a semester earlier than enrollment semester to get their hold taken out. The advising begins after the third week of March for summer or fall semester advising and after third week of October for the following spring semester advising. Each student is responsible to know who their academic advisor is and contact the advisor in time to schedule a one-on-one meeting. Your advisor may send you additional information for you to follow. If you do not know who your academic advisor is, please contact Judy Vandegrift (judyv@uidaho.edu).
Things to do before coming to an advising session:
1. Look at your degree audit by logging into MyUI.
2. Your degree audit has information about your catalog year (Usually the semester you first enrolled to the University). Download and print a copy of course sequence following the link below for your catalog year, and mark the courses you have already taken or currently enrolled.

3. Mark the courses you plan to take next semester by looking at the Class Schedule. Make sure the course is offered and you meet the pre-requisite
4. Bring your questions and marked course sequence with you.
5. Talk to your advisor about your career interest and ask about appropriate technical elective course.
