College of Letters and Science (L&S)
All students are encouraged to see an academic adviser regularly to seek
assistance in designing a program of courses that is optimal for their
educational needs and assures progress toward meeting degree requirements.
Freshmen and transfer students are urged to see an adviser during each
of their first three quarters at the UC Davis campus.
All new students who have selected a major will be assigned an adviser within that major department. New students should contact
their department or program office during the first quarter of residence
on the UC Davis campus to meet with their adviser. If your adviser is
not available when you need assistance, or if you wish to consult an adviser
in a major program other than the one represented by your assigned adviser,
contact the department or program office for help.
Students who have not yet selected a major are automatically
placed in the L&S Academic Options Program which
provides academic advising to lower-division students. Residence Hall
Advising Team sites are located in on-campus residence hall areas. Each
site is staffed by a team of L&S Peer Advisers who will be available
to Academic Options Program students living in that residence hall complex.
Through individual advising, group sessions, and programs, this team will
work with you over the next several quarters. They will help you with
your academic planning, ensuring progress toward your educational goals
and satisfaction of degree requirements. They also can assist you in exploring
your options before you select your major.
L&S Academic Options Program students not living in a university residence hall complex will receive academic advising from the L&S Undergraduate Education and Advising Office. Advisers there also are available to provide academic assistance to all students in the College of Letters and Science. To find answers to your questions and other useful information, including contact information and how to arrange to meet with an adviser, see http://www.ls.ucdavis.edu/Students/.
If you wish to declare a major or change your major, you must arrange for a meeting with an adviser in the new major to discuss your study program and file a Change of Major Petition. Adviser assignments and petitions are available in the office of the major program.
