The first step in e-advising is for you to create and add courses to your planning worksheet. This worksheet will be available to your advisor electronically.

Adding Courses to a worksheet - Catalog Search and Add

In the Catalog Search and Add area, you can research and plan the courses in the catalog that meet your needs for future terms. Use your degree audit to help you determine what your requirements are. As you select courses, be sure you have met any pre-requisites for the course. If you select courses that have time conflicts, or that are not offered in the term you have selected, you will be notified, but not until the point at which you try to pre-register for sections. You should view the course information available under the ‘Search for Sections’ link from the WebAdvisor for Students menu to verify that courses are being offered during the term you are planning for, and to check the times they will be offered.

To add courses to your plan:

1. On the Catalog Search and Add screen you have a variety of options for searching. You can search by subject, course number, course title, location, course type and yearly cycle.
2. Enter the criteria for the course you are searching for and click submit. Please note, to ensure you are searching for courses offered in a particular academic year, select a yearly cycle.
   
   
   
3. After you click submit you will be taken to a results screen. This screen will show all the courses that met your search criteria.
4. Choose a course by clicking the box in the 'Select Course(s)' column, select a term in which you plan to take the course, and click submit. You can choose more than one course from  this screen.
   
   
   
5. After you click submit you will be taken back to your Course Planning Worksheet where your chosen courses will now appear.
   
   
   
6. You may repeat this process as many times as necessary to add courses to your plan.

Once you have added all the courses you wish to your worksheet, you must now nootify your advisor electronically and arrange to meet. You are not registered for the courses until they are approved by your advisor electronically AND you have completed the pre-registration steps.
