Next Steps

1. Prepare for your advising session

This is your time to work one-on-one with an academic advisor to create your schedule and ask questions. During your advising appointment, your academic advisor will assist you with the following:
-Review requirements for your major, including General Education requirements
-Review course offerings

Let your advisor know if you have completed or are interested in any of the following:

-Advanced Placement (AP) exams
-Dual Credit
-Honors Program
-Music ensembles
-Leadership courses
-Additional major(s) and/or minor(s)

2. Learn about First-Year Experience.

First-Year Experience assists the transition to university life and learning through unique learning communities, peer mentors, and opportunities to engage with the campus and larger community.

3. Schedule the Math or English ACCUPLACER (if needed).

Students may be required or elect to take the ACCUPLACER to determine which English/Math course they are eligible to enroll in for the upcoming semester. The Math ACT/SAT subscore is used to assist with placement purposes; however, in some cases students will need to complete the appropriate ACCUPLACER test, as well. Students should visit with their academic advisor to determine if the placement test is necessary. The ACCUPLACER test is available year round by setting up an appointment with the MSU Academic Testing Center, (701) 858-3830.
