Summer Advising
Academic advising is vital part of your academic career, as well as being an integral part of registration.
Undergraduate students who enter the University during a summer session talk with an advisor at an Advising Conference.
Graduate students need to contact the Graduate School concerning advising.
Continuing students who attend a summer session may continue to use the advisor they had during the spring semester.
Your academic advisor is there to help guide you through your program. Throughout the summer and the rest of the school year you should call on your advisor when you have a question or concern.
It is a good idea to get in touch with your advisor before the end of a summer session and plan for the next term. To assure that you will have ample time to work out your schedule, make an appointment with your advisor as early as possible.
If you do not know who your advisor is, call the University of Kentucky Summer School at (859) 257-3382 or 257-8126 for a referral to the appropriate college.
Advising Conferences
New Undergraduate students register at the opening of the term during the Advising Conference. At this time, new students receive a general orientation to University student services, see an advisor and go to a registration site where they receive a confirmed schedule. Students must have their registration worksheets signed by their advisor prior to registration.
Generally, it is not mandatory for transient (visiting) students to attend an advising conference. See page 24 of the Summer School Book for further information.
Graduate students should contact the Graduate School about advising and registration procedures.
