Spring 2014 Registration begins on November 4 th. Group
Advising for Exploring and Pre-Major Students
Slide 2
To Do before group advising 1. Print your transcript. (Go to
your student tab in URSA and select unofficial transcript). 2.
Holds may prevent you from registering for classes. Check your
holds in URSA under Registration Status. 3. Fill out your Liberal
Arts Core (LAC) checklist. (If you need one, find it here).here 4.
Carefully consider majors of interest and potential courses for the
semester. 5. Complete the Student Advising Form, found at the end
of this presentation. Seriously, youll need to bring all of these
items in order to attend the advising session.
Slide 3
What to expect in group advising You will receive your PIN and
registration date. Time with an academic advisor to ask questions
and get advice on your proposed course schedule. Note: If you are
ready to declare your major, head on over to that department. You
will receive advising and your registration PIN there. If you have
already earned 30 credit hours or more, you need to do this at
least two weeks before your registration date.
Slide 4
Lets talk aboutyour transcript Pull out your printed transcript
and LAC checklist. Identify which courses youve taken, or are
currently taking, that will count toward the LAC. Mark only courses
passed with a D- or higher. Remember that AP/IB and transfer
courses may also fulfill LAC requirements. Credit for these courses
is located near the top of your transcript. Make note of your
earned hours. This is the number used when deciding registration
dates.
Slide 5
Lets talk aboutLAC Area 1 Area 1. Communication (Composition) 6
hours If you have not taken ENG 122 English Composition under LAC
Area 1a, now is a good time. ENG 122 is a prerequisite to Area 1b.
Therefore, a passing grade in ENG 122 is necessary before enrolling
in ENG 123, ENG 225, MUS 152, or SCI 291. Review LAC requirements
for your majors of interest, as each major may have a different
requirement for Area 1b.
Slide 6
Lets talk aboutLAC Area 2 Area 2. Mathematics 3 hours Consider
taking your Area 2 course once you have decided on a major. Math
requirements can vary between majors.
Slide 7
Lets talk aboutLAC Areas 3 & 5 Area 3. Arts &
Humanities 6 hours Area 5. Social & Behavioral Sciences 3 hours
Basically, if you take two courses in Area 3, you must take two
courses in Area 5. Take three in Area 3 and you only need one in
Area 5. A total of 12 credit hours is needed to fulfill these areas
in combination. Your courses must be chosen from at least 2
different subgroups (a, b, c, d) Review LAC requirements for your
majors of interest, as each major may have a different requirement
for this area (especially Business).
Slide 8
Lets talk aboutLAC Area 4 Area 4. History 3 hours You must take
one History course before you graduate. Few majors specify which
History course you should take, so any one may be fine. Be sure to
check your majors of interest to be sure there is no specific
requirement.
Slide 9
Lets talk aboutLAC Area 6 Area 6. Physical & Life Sciences
7 hours You must take one course that is 4 credits with a lab (L)
and one 3 credit non lab to graduate. These courses must have
different prefixes. For example, you cannot count two GEOL courses
toward LAC credit. If you are not pursuing a science major, please
do not take BIO 110 Principles of Biology. This is a very difficult
course designed for science majors.
Slide 10
Lets talk aboutLAC Areas 7 & 8 Area 7. International
Studies select one course Area 8. Multicultural Studies select one
course Before you graduate, you need to take at least one course
from both Areas 7 & 8. No foreign language is required at UNC
for most majors. Although many courses in Area 7 are languages,
several are not. Also, please be advised that CHIN 116, FR 116, GER
116, and JAPN 116 are taught in English.
Slide 11
Now, go ahead and Print the Student Advising Form and use it to
write down a list of courses you want to take next semester.Student
Advising Form Some things to consider: Prerequisites Introduction
to major courses Balancing your schedule (credit hours, level of
difficulty) You dont just have to take LAC courses. Flip through
the catalog to find major courses you can try. You need to declare

explore!
