The CLASS Advisement Center advises undergraduate students in the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences with majors in Anthropology, English, Modern Languages, History, Justice Studies, Philosophy, Political Science, Pre-Communication Arts, Communication Arts (between 30-45 hrs), Psychology, Sociology and Writing and Linguistics. All Art and Music majors are advised in their respective department. CLASS upperclassmen are advised by a faculty advisor within their major department. In addition, the CLASS Advisement Center advises all General Studies majors until graduation. More specifically, we advise the following groups of students:
All Accel students are advised by Tifani Landing Pool in the Registrar’s Office All Learning Support students, regardless of major, are advised in the Academic Success Center All Undeclared students are advised by the Office of First Year Experience
Prior to being advised, students must schedule an appointment by contacting the CLASS Advisement Center main office at (912) 478-7740. Students may call or come by room 3060 of the Foy Building to schedule an appointment. Students are notified when they can begin to schedule appointments through an e-mail sent by CLASS Advisement Center staff. Students will be scheduled with a faculty advisor from their respective department. General Studies majors are to see their respective General Studies advisor: • Lisa C. Sapp, A-L students with 60 hours and over
After an advising appointment is scheduled, students will come to the CLASS Advisement Center on their assigned date/time to be advised and supplied their RAN for the upcoming semester(s). Students will then check their WINGS account to see when they are eligible to register for classes. Students cannot register for classes before seeing an advisor. Change of Major Students wishing to change their major should first run a “What-If Analysis” from their Wings account. The “What-If Analysis” is a feature within WINGS that displays how course credits transfer between different majors. The student should then contact their current college’s advisement center to fill out the appropriate “Change-of-Major” form and Exit Survey. After the above forms have been completed, the student’s respective advisement center will deliver a student’s folder to the appropriate college advisement center. Students could then contact their new college’s advisement center about being advised for their new major. Students wishing to change to a liberal arts major from another college should first contact their current college’s advisement center. At which time, they would fill out the appropriate “Change-of-Major” form and Exit Survey after completing a “What-If Analysis” from their WINGS account. Students could then contact the CLASS Advisement Center so they can be advised for their new major.
