  15. Transfer Student Mission Seminar Requirements Placeholders on the degree audit will indicate whether a student does not need to take all four seminars Placeholders will move if a course is taken It is preferable for students to take the later courses Students may need a waiver to register for a later seminar if she has not had earlier seminars

  16. General thoughts about registration of new students Main goal is registration—there will be time later to work on building a relationship. Appointments will run 30 minutes each and advisors may have several back-to-back appointments on a given day. Some pre-planning of schedules is important to make the day run smoothly.
