Academic Advising

Graduate Student Advising

Graduate students should contact their departmental faculty to arrange an advising appointment. For students not accepted into specific programs, the Assistant to the Dean of Graduate Studies or his/her designee may act as advisor. The web registration system will ask if you have discussed your program with your advisor. Answer 'yes' if you have; otherwise, you cannot continue with the registration process.

Undergraduate Student Advising

Beginning with the Fall 2005 semester, UT introduced a new academic advising policy. The new policy has implications for all students. Please read the following highlights of the policy below to learn what you need to do for registration.

Contact This Department Office of the University Registrar 209 Student Services Building Knoxville, TN 37996-0200 Phone 865-974-2101 Fax 865-974-2606 Monday-Friday 7:30 am to 5:30 pm except holidays Phone Menu Options

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Any student who has earned less than 30 credit hours at UT or is on Academic Review must meet with an advisor each semester to be cleared for registration for the following semester.
  
• Transfer students who have earned less than 30 credit hours at UT or are on Academic Review must meet with an advisor each semester to be cleared for registration for the following semester.
  
• After a student has earned 30 hours and is no longer on Academic Review, he/she will meet with an advisor once an academic year.
  
• A student’s required advising term is determined by the last digit of the student ID number:
  
  Even number: Advised in Fall for Spring
    (A last digit of zero is considered an even number.)
  Odd number: Advised in Spring for Fall
  
  
• A student’s registration date will still be based on the number of credit hours earned towards graduation at UT, for example – seniors will have an earlier registration date than sophomores.

You are encouraged to meet with your advisor as often as necessary. Remember, an advising appointment is much more than simply picking classes for the next term. It is an opportunity for you and your advisor to develop and evaluate an academic plan that will enable you to reach your academic goals. Take full advantage of your advising appointment and prepare for the meeting by reviewing your academic history, your DARS report (degree audit) and your progress in courses this term.

If you are unsure how to contact your advisor, please go to the Student Success web site at http://studentsuccess.tennessee.edu/advising or call the Student Success Center at 865/946-4357 for assistance. See the table below for college websites and contact numbers.
