How do I prepare to meet with an advisor?

To prepare for your advising appointment, complete the following steps: 

  1. Review the roadmap for your major in the University Catalog.  
  2. Read over your GPS Audit to determine what courses you still need  (See Flashline > Advising and GPS > GPS Audit and Plan). You may also use the B.B.A. University and Major Requirement sheets to identify what requirements you still need to complete. 
  3. Review any previous GPS created by an advisor.
