• Show up to the meeting on time and be respectful of your advisor’s time. If you need to reschedule, provide ample notice.
• Be open to your advisor’s recommendations and suggestions. They have experience and insights that can help you make informed decisions.
• Identify your academic and career goals.
  • Are you working toward a specific major, minor, or career path?
  • Do you have questions about your academic progress or course choices?

Also consider any long-term objectives, such as graduation timelines, 实习, study abroad programs, or graduate school plans.

• If you have any questions, concerns or topics you’d like to discuss with your advisor, 写一张清单. This might include questions about 选课, 学位要求, 学术挑战, or opportunities for research or extracurricular involvement.

At Saint Augustine’s University, 我们力争学生每学期入读15个学分，达到“15到结束”. “15到完成”计划是一个全面的策略，鼓励学生每学期注册15个学分, aiming to facilitate on-time graduation. 如果你保持这个速度，你可以在一个标准的时间框架内完成你的学位(学士学位通常是四年). 非全日制注册通常定义为每学期少于12个学分.

在学业上挑战自己和确保学业成功之间找到平衡是很重要的. 过多的学分会让你精疲力竭，对你的学习成绩产生负面影响. On the other hand, taking too few credit hours may prolong your time in school. 最终，正确的学时数将取决于你的独特情况.

一旦你意识到你可能遇到麻烦，你应该尽快和你的学术顾问谈谈. 学术顾问是最基本的一层支持，可以和你一起制定一些策略来提高你的学术地位，并帮助你在校园找到合适的资源. 然而, the longer you wait to talk with your advisor, the more difficult it will be for him/her to help you.

Your instructor can also be a great resource. 预约或者到你的指导老师的办公室去，讨论一下你能做些什么来提高你的成绩. 你的教练可以提供个性化的信息，告诉你如何提高你的技能和对主题的理解. 这也向老师表明你关心自己的成绩和在课堂上的进步.

After the add/drop period, you will not be able to drop a course but instead, withdraw from the course. It is very similar to the add/drop process, 在退课期间，你对课程表所做的任何改变都应该首先与你的导师讨论，以确保这些改变不会对你的学位进展产生负面影响. After talking with your advisor, 您的指导老师将填写退出表格，然后您将表格发送到注册办公室完成最后的步骤.
