Advising for Undeclared Freshmen

"Do I need to make an advising session appointment?" Yes! Advising is one of the most important steps to your future success at The Beach. The University feels so strongly about insuring that you receive advising as you prepare for your sophomore year that all freshmen are required to participate in an advising program prior to registering.

Students who have not declared a major or are not certain about an academic program should attend general advising sessions offered by the University Center for Undergraduate Advising. These sessions are geared to undeclared majors and will be held in the University Center for Undergraduate Advising (located in Horn Center, Suite 103).

If you already have a specific major in mind, you must sign up for an advising session offered by the college/department associated with the major in which you are interested.

If, however, you have declared a major and you want to change your major to "Undeclared" - visit us in the University Center for Undergraduate Advising, as soon as possible. A UCUA advisor will submit a request to change your major to "Undeclared" and you will then be eligible to attend a Freshman Spring Advising for Undeclared Majors workshop in the University Center for Undergraduate Advising. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact our office at (562) 985-4837 and follow the telephone prompts to speak to a receptionist.
