Advising
The advising process is designed to get you ready to register for your next semester's courses. Note, however, that the process only prepares you; it is your responsibility to register yourself via Webcat once your assigned registration window opens.
In future semesters, you will likely work directly with your assigned academic advisor to complete that semester's advising process. However, since most CS 400 students have not been assigned a permanent advisor, the advising process is incorporated into the CS 400 course for most of those students who are enrolled in it.
If you should be working directly with your previously assigned advisor instead, you will be notified of that fact via email. In the absence of such an email, assume that you should be following the CS 400 advising process.
The videos below are meant to server a dual purpose. Their primary purpose is to tell you everything you need to know to participate successfully in the CS 400 advising process. However, their secondary purpose is to act as a resource to which you can refer later when working with your permanent advisor in future semesters.
If you wish to access the slides used in the videos, they are available for download.
1 Process Overview
Video: ~40 minutes
This video provides you with an overview of the advising process in general, with a particular focus on the process as it is practiced in the context of CS 400. It is recommended that you watch this video before any of the others on this page.
2 Completing the Plan
Video: ~18 minutes
This video provides you with a discussion and demonstration of how to complete the Plan document that you will need to submit via Canvas as the first part of the CS 400 advising process. Since this Plan is designed specifically for its role in the CS 400 process, this video will likely not be of great value to you in later semesters.
3 Using the Time and Room Schedule
Video: ~21 minutes
This video provides you with a demonstration of the fundamental usage of the Time and Room Schedule. Since you will use the Time and Room Schedule (or Course Search) throughout your time at UNH, keep this video in mind as it may be worth reviewing in the future.
4 Using YouScheduler
Video: ~9 minutes
This video provides you with a demonstration of the fundamental usage of YouScheduler. This is a valuable tool that you will likely find useful throughout your time at UNH, so keep this video in mind as it may be worth reviewing in the future.
5 Completing the Worksheet
Video: ~18 minutes
This video provides you with a discussion and demonstration of how to complete the Worksheet document that you will need to submit via Canvas as the second part of the CS 400 advising process. Since you will likely be expected to complete a Worksheet at the end of every future advising process, keep this video in mind and feel free to come back to review it later.
