Commonly known as CLASS, our college is the largest at UNT with nearly 8000 students and more than 300 full-time faculty members. CLASS provides instruction to every undergraduate at UNT as part of the university’s core curriculum as well as specialized courses in the arts, communications, humanities, social sciences, and interdisciplinary programs spread throughout our 15 departments offering 113 undergraduate and graduate degree programs.

Good luck with your studies! I look forward to seeing you in CLASS.

Sincerely,

David Holdeman Dean, College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences

Academic Advising

UNT Advising Definition: Academic advising is a collaborative partnership and developmental process that assists students in defining, clarifying and achieving academic, personal, and career goals. Mission of the Dean’s Office for Undergraduates and Student Advising: The office mission is to teach, assist and empower students to define, clarify and achieve academic and personal goals through professional, caring service. Advisors will guide students in: • Partnering and collaborating with advisors to develop and review a four plan year to accomplish their

educational goals. • Understanding and applying knowledge about their degree requirements to graduate in an efficient and

timely manner. • Utilizing campus resources. • Understanding the importance of deadlines, policies, procedures and accept their responsibility to uphold

them. • Utilizing online resources and advising tools, such as Succeed at UNT. • Succeeding at UNT by showing up, finding support, taking control, being prepared, getting involved, and

being persistent. • Accepting and embracing their responsibilities as engaged citizens of UNT and the world.

Student’s Responsibilities (What you are expected to do): • Schedule regular appointments or make regular contacts with your advisor during each semester. • Come prepared to each appointment with questions or material for discussion. • Ask questions, request clarification, and keep records. • Use Guidebook and on-line advising tools to track academic progress. • Become knowledgeable about college programs, course sequencing/prerequisites, policies and procedures. • Accept responsibility for your educational plan and for your decisions. • Seek out academic and student services, when needed.

Although some students are required to meet with their advisor every semester, all students are encouraged to do so. Declared majors have faculty advisors available in their academic departments in addition to the professional advising staff in the Dean’s Office for Undergraduates and Student Advising.

From Your Dean

Brochure 2017 –Page 3 – Revised 3-24-2017

Who are my Academic Advisors?

A complete list of academic advisors, academic counselors, faculty advisors, health professions advisors and pre-law advisors are listed on our website at http://class.unt.edu/advising/advisor-contacts.

Advisors in the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences

The College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences provides three distinct types of Academic Advisors for majors.

Academic Counselors - assist students who have not yet chosen a major and are exploring their major and career options within the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences. They are also involved with career counseling and assisting with more complex counseling situations. Some of the Academic Counselors serve as the primary advisors for Integrative Studies and Social Science majors.

Academic Advisors - work in conjunction with Departmental or Faculty Advisors. Academic Advisors assist students with chosen majors in answering questions concerning General University Core and College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences requirements. They are available to review official degree audits with students, perform graduation checks with students, and review all situations requiring Dean's Office Approval for Liberal Arts and Social Sciences Undergraduate Students (such as Concurrent Enrollment, Overload, and Pass/No Pass Course Option approvals.)

Departmental/Faculty Advisors - work in conjunction with Academic Advisors, mentor students in their academic discipline, help them understand requirements in their major, career options related to that major, and the process for obtaining an official degree audit.

Degree Audit A degree audit is an official document of the University that lists all the courses needed to complete a chosen degree and shows how all the courses completed are applied toward the degree. Students should file for a degree audit when certain of their major by making an appointment with the faculty advisor in the major department. Transfer students will need to bring:

• copies of evaluated transfer transcripts from the UNT Registrar’s Office • catalog descriptions of transfer courses • the initial Core Curriculum Transfer Evaluation Form/Audit (received at orientation)

After the degree audit advising session with the advisor, the degree audit request form is sent to the Dean’s Office for Undergraduates and Student Advising (GAB 220) for preparation of the degree audit. The degree audit will be emailed to your UNT email address. Students can obtain an updated copy each semester from GAB 220 or you can view your degree audit on-line at mydegreeaudit.unt.edu. Academic Advisors in GAB 220 are available by appointment to assist students with questions that may arise as they chart their progress.

Pre-Professional Supplemental Advising

Health-Related Career Advising - Dentistry, Medicine, Optometry, Veterinary Medicine, Podiatry, Physician Assistant, Physical Therapy, Chiropractic, Pharmacy and Occupational Therapy: Students interested in these professions should schedule an appointment with a counselor in the office of Health Professions Programs, located in Hickory Hall 283. The College of Science provides assistance regarding entrance requirements, the application process, interview preparation and the required recommendations for the professional school. (940-565-6510, www.cos.unt.edu/advising/health-professions)

Pre-Law/Legal Careers - Supplemental advising is available to all UNT students regarding law school admissions and the pursuit of a legal career. Guidance is available from your first year at UNT through the law school application process, and through selection of the right law school for you.

Important Things to Know Eagle Express Tuition Plan

Tuition costs are a big part of planning for college – and a big concern. UNT offers you an innovative solution to rising college costs with the Eagle Express plan. Eagle Express is more than a tuition plan, it’s a plan for success.

• UNT’s Eagle Express plan locks in your total academic costs for four years. • It pays to graduate on time. Save up to $3,000 in your last 15 hours (typically your last

semester) by graduating in four years, and if you qualify for the statewide on-time $1,000 tuition rebate, you’ll save $4,000.

• You’ll save time and money by knowing your academic costs up front, graduating on time and earning a full-time salary sooner.

For more information, you can direct any questions you have to our toll-free information line at 844-236-6855 or visit eagleexpress.unt.edu. Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)

Students applying for financial aid will be monitored for satisfactory academic progress, including pace of progression and academic performance. Please see a financial aid counselor and visit with your academic advisor. Additional details are available at www.financialaid.unt.edu/sap. Graduation Information Graduation Check Students should request an appointment for a graduation check with their advisor in the Dean’s Office for Undergraduate and Student Advising during the semester prior to the semester planned for graduation. While it is recommended that students set up an appointment with their advisor for a graduation check, students may request an updated degree audit in GAB 220 at any time. Graduation Application The graduation application may be accessed through the my.unt.edu student center. In order to apply for graduation, students should:

• Submit graduation application by the deadline stated in the Schedule of Classes. • Enroll for all courses stated on the degree audit within the course load guidelines. • Complete the required English Composition courses with a grade of C or better. • Must have a minimum overall grade point average of 2.0 on all attempted course work at UNT. • Must have a minimum overall grade point average of 2.0 on all coursework attempted

(transfer and UNT combined). • Not be concurrently enrolled at any other institution.
