    • All new Day College students who enroll for Fall 2022 and after will be part of the QEP, regardless of the number of credit hours upon first enrolling.
  • 我是一名新生. 我的顾问是如何分配的?
    • Students who declare a major upon enrolling will be assigned a faculty member in their major. Students who have not declared a major upon enrolling will be assigned a member of the faculty based on the total advising load for each faculty member. All students will be assigned to a 工作人员 advisor based on the alphabet.
