[quote=Anonymous][quote]Before my son picked his freshman classes, I did make sure he had the four-year plan for his major and a list of gen ed. classes handy. For both kids, I check in once in a while to make sure they have been able to get the classes they need to stick to the four-year graduation plan, although one of them feels this is too much intervention. That’s too much intervention. That’s what their academic advisors are for.[/quote] In my son's case, he had to register for his first semester classes during beach week and almost 6 weeks before his advisor appointment at summer orientation (by which point all the classes and waitlists are full). I didn't think it was too helicopter-y to send him off to the hotel with easy access to a list of first year requirements. I have no idea if he looked at it or if he registered during his appointed time. As a 17 year old with ADHD he was the one who thought this was "too much." [/quote]
