Advisement for Course Selection
Top
During orientation and prior to the start of each subsequent term of enrollment, students are given an opportunity to meet with their advisor or other faculty members. Advisement and course selection is a time when students and their advisors plan and schedule courses. It is beneficial for students to retain academic records such as correspondence, transcripts, and copies of registration and add/drop forms, which will be important when meeting with advisors and planning course schedules.
Disability Support ServicesTop
Persons with disabilities can and do succeed in their pursuit of higher education. Sometimes, the length of time required to complete a degree program is extended; often, the amount of effort demanded of the student is increased.
The mission of Disability Support Services is to guide and support institutional compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act, to ensure equal access for students with disabilities.

Faculty AdvisorsTop  Upon matriculation, all students are assigned academic advisors, who help students plan an academic program suited for their education and career goals.
Each term, advisors post office hours and are available to meet with students. Students who establish a relationship with their academic advisor will benefit both in and out of the classroom. Academic advisors can be an excellent source of information on degree-specific courses, academic policies and procedures, and career planning.
Freshmen and first-term transfer students are required to consult with their advisor for course selection and registration for upcoming terms.
Pre-RegistrationTop
Many students will be pre-registered for classes prior to arriving on campus for their first term.
Proper placement is essential to academic progress and is based upon information provided by you, your high school, and/or a testing agency. Records & Registration uses the SAT IIC test scores for math placement and the ACT and SAT test scores for humanities placement. Some students cannot be pre-registered and are required to take a math placement test administered during orientation. The purpose of this test is to determine which math course you should take for your degree program. After your math placement has been decided, you will register on campus at the appointment time printed on the outside of your orientation packet, which you will receive at check-in. To review math requirements for your degree program, visit the Math Placement web site.
At their request, some students have been pre-registered for ROTC courses. If you wish to add an ROTC course and did not submit the post card, please notify Records & Registration prior to your arrival on campus.
Flight students have been placed in appropriate flight courses based on information in Admissions and Records & Registration. If you have recently obtained licenses, please be sure that copies have been forwarded to the university.
Much of the information on your schedule will be easy to understand. The section number designates the days and times that a class meets. For a description of courses, consult the University Catalog.
If you have questions about your math placement or course schedule, contact Records & Registration by e-mail (include your full name and student number or date of birth) or by phone at (386) 226-6339.
Release of Student Personal Information
Top
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) as amended protects the privacy of each student's educational records and limits access of the information contained in those records. The University is bound to this regulation, and cannot release any information without a FERPA form filled out and signed by the student.
The Dean of Students Office mails the FERPA form to your family approximately one-month before Orientation. Forms may also be obtained during Orientation from their office, located on the second floor of the John Paul Riddle Student Center.
