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 www.cas.unt.edu/advising under Advisor Contacts.

Advisors in the College of Arts and Sciences

The College of Arts and Sciences provides three distinct types of Academic Advisors for majors and supplemental advising for Health Professions and Pre-Law:

Academic Counselors - the primary focus of Academic Counselors is to assist students who have not yet chosen a major and are exploring their major and career options within the College of Arts and Sciences. They are also involved with career counseling, teaching a career development course, and assisting in more complex counseling situations. Academic Counselors serve as the primary advisors for General Studies, 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 Arts and 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 Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Students (such as Concurrent Enrollment, Overload, and Pass/No Pass Course Option approvals).

Departmental/Faculty Advisors - work in conjunction with Academic Advisors, mentoring students in their academic disciplines by helping them understand requirements in the major, career options with that major, and start the process for obtaining an official degree audit.

Pre-Professional 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 the Assistant Director of Health Professions Programs in the Office of Health Professions, located in the General Academic Building (GAB) room 220. Assistance will be provided regarding entrance requirements, the application process, interview preparation and the required recommendations for the professional school. (565-2051 – www.cas.unt.edu/advising/health/index.htm)

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. (565-4413 - www. http://cas.unt.edu/advising/pre-law)

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 departmental advisory 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 mailed to the address listed in your my.unt.edu. Students can obtain an updated copy each semester from GAB 220 or you can view your degree audit on-line at my.unt.edu. Academic Advisors in GAB 220 are available by appointment to assist students with questions that may arise as they chart their progress.
