Undergraduate Academic Advising
Regular academic advising is essential to your success as it keeps you on track to graduate. Meeting with your advisor at least once a semester will ensure that your educational goals and your career goals align. Contact your department representative to set up a time for a one-on-one meeting.

Academic Plans
To provide students with the resources they need to plan for their time at Mason and in the Volgenau School of Engineering we have developed 4-year academic plans and degree worksheets. The plans contain course-by-course progression to graduation while the degree worksheets act as a check-list.
When used in combination with academic advising, these tools allow students to create their own personalized road map for success and degree completion.

Pre-Orientation Advising for admitted Transfer Students
To prepare for your in-person Transfer Student Orientation, Mason offers the option to request a pre-orientation advising meeting with an academic advisor from your college or school.
If you seek pre-orientation advising, please be aware that not all the departments provide the service. If a department provides the service, however, you must first request a transcript evaluation from admissions.
Pre-orientation advising is most effective after your transfer credits have been evaluated. Please continue to monitor your Patriot Web account after you submit your request. When your credits are reflected on your Mason transcript, contact your department to inquire if they are available for an appointment.
The school's academic advisors assist students in personal development and creating strategic course plans to meet the requirements of their majors and minors. Academic Advisors also suggest opportunities that can enhance their experience at Mason.
