Introduce yourself, find out student’s interests, goals, background. Set expectations re future meetings with you.2. Look up advisee’s transcript: Login to myfau, select FAU self-service/faculty services/student ID/enter name or Z number/select transcript. 3. Not all AP/IB/College credits may appear. Ask advisee if they have other credit. Make sure they have AP scores/transcripts sent to FAU registrar.4. Use the new Core/Graduation checklist () to check off what advisees have fulfilled and circle what they still need. Document the courses the student will take this term, the requirements they need to fulfill in the future, etc. (e.g. in an email that you send to the advisee and to yourself for archiving). 5. Select courses using latest pdf of course offerings: . Make sure the chosen courses don’t conflict. You might have students register during your appointment, as Banner will then indicate conflicts. 6. Advising differs for transfer students, FTICs who are premed/science, and FTICs who are not: see appropriate section below.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------TRANSFER STUDENTS entering with an A.A. degree from Florida automatically satisfy the CORE requirements. For transfers without an AA, we will need to review their courses one by one to see which are equivalent to HC core courses. All transfers need “other graduation requirements” and concentration coursework. For their spring semester transfers typically take:FOREIGN LANGUAGECONCENTRATION COURSES. Note: some transfers may not have adequate prep for upper level Bio/Chem classes. They may need Organic (or even its prereq, Gen Chem I/II), or other prereqs. Call a Science faculty if you aren’t sure how to advise one of these students.DISTRIBUTION ELECTIVE(S) in Humanities or SBA (students need 1 in each, taken at HC)TEAM-TAUGHT COURSE------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------PREMED/SCIENCE STUDENTS: Premeds need to stay on track. Typical Freshmen Spring schedule for Premeds: CHM 2046/L (Gen Chem I/Lab) (4 credits)MAC 2311 (Calc) or MAC 2312 (Calc II) (4 credits)BSC 1011/L (Biological Principles/Lab) (4 credits)CORE NON-SCIENCE COURSE or FOREIGN LANGUAGE (3-4 credits)--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NON-SCIENCE STUDENTS: Typical Freshmen Spring schedule:CHM 1020C Contemporary Chemical IssuesSTA 2023 (Stats) (3 credits) or MGF 1107 (Math for Liberal Arts)CORE SBA /HUMANITIES/GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP courses (3-9 credits)FOREIGN LANGUAGE (4 credits)Note: students entering with enough credit to give them sophomore standing can consider taking a concentration course.OTHER IMPORTANT POLICIES:1) Students must take a MINIMUM of 12 credits/semester of HC courses to be full-time and remain eligible for their HC scholarship.2) Students may take non-honors courses with advisor approval but may NOT take a non-honors version of an HC course without compelling justification and approval from their advisor and the Associate Dean of Academic Programs. A compelling justification would be if 2 HC courses must be taken this semester to graduate on time and they conflict with one another.3) If a class is full, students can contact the instructor, who has the option of overriding the cap to permit the studentSpring 2019 Humanities/SS Courses with no prerequisites (3 credit courses may be used as distribution electives)—students may also take any course satisfying SBA or HUM as a distribution elective.HCANANT4331Honors Anthropology of AndesCorr, RachelHCECECO4932Honors Behavioral EconomicsNur-tegin, KanybekHCENCRW4930Honors Writing the NovelLuria, RachelHCENLIT4930Honors European RenaissanceHarrawood, MichaelHCHIAMH4932Honors Hollywood's AmericaStrain, ChristopherHCHIHIS1933Honors Histry of Food & EatingEly, ChristopherHCIDIDS3930Honors Theories of ReligionMcCane, ByronHCPLPHI3633Honors Biomedical EthicsKennedy, AshleyHCPLPHI4930Hon Pol Phil Anct Greece/RomeBaima, NicholasHCPLPHI4930Honors Foundations of MoralityBaima, NicholasHCPLPHI4930Honors Philosophy of MindMalanowski, SarahHCPSPOS4932Honors Women and the WorkplaceBorman, AmyHCSOSYP4803Honors Gender and TechnologyNjambi, Wairimu ................
