Student Advising & Registration Info 

The Main Campus Advising is located in Ashley Hall 1001.
Phone: 229-245-4378  |  Email: arroberson@valdosta.edu

Student advisees can make an appointment to see their professional academic advisor at any time, and as many times as needed. Academic advising in the Department of Art & Design takes place throughout the year, however registration for classes occurs after the mid-term of each semester, typically late March (for Fall registration) and late October (for Spring & Summer registration). Please schedule an appointment to see your advisor prior to the registration dates.

Student advisees should understand that your advisor will not make decisions for you during your advising sessions. Your advisor will provide you with the most accurate information available and will work with you to create a realistic plan to aid you in accomplishing your educational and career goals.

It is especially important for all students to note that it is their individual and personal responsibility to keep themselves apprised of current graduation requirements for their particular degree program. Ultimately, the education choices you make are yours and the responsibility for knowing and fulfilling degree requirements rest with you.
