The guide for enrolled transfer students contains advice on requirements and deadlines which are critical to completing your degree on time.
- Attend College transfer student Orientation in January.
- Learn the College Deadlines (see the calendar) and pay attention to them. Verify your course enrollments BEFORE the drop deadline.
- Fulfill any remaining area requirements, especially the First Writing and Foreign Language requirements, as soon as possible.
- Get to know your instructors. Make use of their office hours and introduce yourself.
- Plan your program carefully. All students are limited in the number of full-time semesters allotted. You may finish your degree during Summer Session if you need to do so.
- See Ms. Ozment if you are a third-year student and are unable to declare your major within the first two weeks of the spring semester.
- You must complete all remaining College area requirements at UVa.
- Don't repeat courses for which you have already received credit.
- Be sure to meet with your faculty advisor during the first week of classes.
- Second-year students will be assigned an advisor; third-year students need to declare a major upon arrival and will then be assigned an advisor in their major
