Advisement
Each semester MPA students are advised when they submit their advisement form to register for classes. All MPA classes have an “advisement flag” which requires the permission of the MPA Graduate Coordinator before a student can enroll in a class. To receive permission to enroll in classes a student needs to complete the advisement form and submit it electronically. When it is received by the MPA Graduate Coordinator, the student’s transcript is examined for progress in the program and to ascertain if the requested courses are appropriate for the student’s program of study. The student is notified by e-mail that the “advisement flag” has been removed, and then the student can complete the enrollment process. If there are any questions and/or changes, the student is notified electronically or via phone.
Students are encouraged to set up appointments periodically with the MPA Graduate Coordinator for program and career advisement.
