The communication program offers a variety of advising options for its students. An undergraduate handbook is updated each semester and is available online and in the Office of Student Services. Students are urged to consult the handbook for information regarding admission procedures, program requirements, and course offerings and prerequisites. Basic information is provided on the school's website. To address more complex questions, students are encouraged to
schedule appointments with the Office of Student Services staff or director of the major.
All courses are not offered every semester, and students are encouraged strongly to check course prerequisites carefully and formulate a plan of study that will
enable them to develop a coherent area of concentration in the major that meets their career goals while taking into account course
availability. Students should seek advising through their four-year school regarding appropriate minors, double majors, and school
requirements in concert with the major.
