Who will be my advisor?
The Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs makes the initial
assignment for all new MU students. The assignment is based on the
students' indication of their probable major and/or concentration.
Students will consult with advisors on all matters related to academic
affairs and their class schedules. It is imperative that students
utilize the MU e-mail system regularly for communication from the
University related to academic affairs and academic advising. It
is also important that students attend all scheduled advising meetings
throughout the academic year.
What does "catalogue year"
mean?
Each year changes are made to the Academic
Catalogue. The catalogue that applies to you is the catalogue
in existence when you first attended the university. For example,
if you came to Methodist University in Fall 2009, your "catalogue
year" is 2009-2010.
How many hours is a full load?
A full course load is 12 or more semester hours. This is the minimum
number of hours to be classified as a full-time student.
What GPA do I need to graduate?
Generally, students need to maintain a GPA of 2.00 or higher a)
Overall, b) in residency, c) in the major, d) in the minor and e)
in the concentration. However, some majors require higher GPA’s
so be sure to check your academic catalogue for the GPA requirements
for your specific major, minor and/or concentration.
How do I change my major? My advisor?
These changes are facilitated by completing a Request
for Change form which is then submitted to the Registrar's Office.
