Advising PIN (required for registration each semester)
Each academic unit issues the Advising PIN that is required for registration in the first semester of student enrollment at Ï㽶´«Ã½.
For graduate students in full-time programs:
- New graduate students receive their PIN number from the graduate program director, who serves as their first academic adviser.
- For each semester after, if they are not on probation, students can find their Advising PIN number in their Ï㽶´«Ã½ Portal account.
Graduate Academic Advising
Graduate students are required to complete a mandatory advising session with the graduate academic (or Accelerated Master’s Program) adviser. The GP Graduate Advising Hold becomes active before the next semester of registration opens for:
- Accelerated master’s students in the first semester of graduate enrollment
- Traditional masters students at nine earned or enrolled credits
- Doctoral students at 18 earned or enrolled credits
The hold prevents registration before the following semester, until lifted by the adviser, and a mandatory advising session is required for the student to clear the registration hold.
One-on-one advising sessions can be arranged by email with the student’s adviser based on the student’s need. If a student enters a research program in a faculty member’s lab in the department, the research faculty member becomes the student’s primary adviser (while the graduate program director remains the secondary adviser).
Students in part-time professional programs will have that program’s director as their adviser.
