Important notes for fall quarter – advising, overloading, graduation appts, tutoring, etc.

Hey folks, welcome back to UW!

Overloading: If you are still trying to get into a CSE course, plan to attend the first day and put your name on the overload list. We’ll try to make decisions by Monday.

Dropin advising: It’s going to be very busy this week.  If you have immediate registration issues, feel free to come to dropins this week, if you want to look at your four year plan… let’s wait until you fill out a MyPlan and then come see us after a couple of weeks have passed…

Graduation Apps: We will email in a couple of weeks about graduation appointments. Everyone planning to graduate this quarter or winter or spring, will need to come see an advisor.  We’ll have online appointments to sign up for when it’s time to complete this process. The first week isn’t a good time for that meeting, we might miss something, and that would make you sad.

Email:  We get a lot of email, but here is a tip, if you need a section change or something registration related and you give us ALL the info you think we might need (student number, sln’s etc) so we don’t have to look things up, there is a higher chance we’ll answer your email sooner rather than later.  Please try to give us at least 48 hours to return your email before pinging us again. Sending an email every hour or two doesn’t increase your chances of getting spot in the coveted class…

Tutoring: We do have some limited tutoring available, sign up online if you are interested. These small groups of 1-4 are led by a graduate student tutor.  http://www.cs.washington.edu/students/ugrad/tutoring

 390C: Reminder, still space in the 2 credit 390C course. Search for 390c on the blog for more details.

Welcome Night: We did have enough mentors sign up, so if you signed up, please plan to join us a week from today. Than you everyone, our students are awesome!

Hope you all had a relaxing summer break and are ready to dive into a fun quarter. We look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,

CSE Advising: Crystal, Raven, Jen, and Tina
