Greetings from your advisor, Nicole Young!

Advance Registration for BOTH Summer 2015 and Fall 2015 will begin March 23, so it is time to schedule an appointment to clear your advising hold(s) and discuss your upcoming schedule for the next semester(s). The schedule of courses is available to view for all students at www.registrar.ufl.edu/soc. Please review the course listings before you arrive for your appointment, and please review your degree audit to confirm what remaining courses you have to complete for the Electrical Engineering degree.

I will be seeing students by your class classification (6EG, 5EG, 4EG, 3EG, 2EG,) beginning MARCH 6TH. For post-bac students, you will be seen with the 5 and 6 EG’s (starting March 4).  For students currently studying abroad, AIM students and HONORS students, please send an email directly to undergradadvising@ece.ufl.edu for assistance. Your advising may be conducted differently.

Advance registration is a busy time; please understand that if you are more than 5 minutes late to your appointment you run the risk of being asked to reschedule for another date/time.

Please refer to the schedule above to see when you can schedule your registration appointment. Students that schedule an appointment earlier than outlined above will have their appointment cancelled and will need to reschedule.
