Advising

Your acceptance letter from the Graduate School should indicate your assigned advisor, and you should receive advising information from your program within 2-3 weeks. If not, you should initiate contact. Your  advisor will communicate with you only via your official VSU E-mail account, not a personal email account. Advising is required each semester for all graduate students to be able to register for courses.
