Every student in the University is provided with an academic advisor who is a member of the faculty. A student who has selected a specific major will find the names of the advisors for that major listed under the name of the department or the major subject in the appropriate college or school section in Part III of the 1988-89 Bulletin of the Mississippi State University. In addition, advisors are assigned in the appropriate colleges for students wishing to pursue degrees in General Agriculture, General Business, General Liberal Arts, and General Science. Before registering for any semester, each student is responsible for consulting his or her advisor to work out and secure approval for a specific schedule of courses. Prospective new students may be advised and may preregister during summer orientation.
Regular registration is conducted immediately prior to the beginning of classes.
A student who for any reason has been unable to register during these scheduled registration periods may still do so up to the last day for registration and adding courses as listed in the Academic Calendar, but may find the choices of courses and sections limited. Anyone registering or paying fees after the last day for registration and adding courses will be assessed a late registration fee. See page 14 of the Bulletin of Mississippi State University .
