New Students

2008 Reading Project – Read the book before you arrive

The Academic Advising Center is one of the most important resources offered to you as you plan your undergraduate career at Tulane. Together, we can map out your academic future at Tulane and help you with course selection, registration and majors. One of the first and most important tasks you’ll need to accomplish as a new student is course selection and registration. That process begins this summer.

Our team of advisors will guide you every step of the way. Each of you has been assigned a summer advisor to answer your questions as you plan for your first semester. Your summer advisor will serve as an invaluable resource for the next few months. We urge you to take advantage of their assistance.

The Freshman Academic Planning Guide will help you get started. It contains a lot of suggestions, choices, and requirements. We urge you to read the Guide in conjunction with the Curriculum Guide.

Here are additional links to resources you might find helpful.

After you arrive in August, and during the first few days of classes, you will meet with your primary academic advisor, set goals, review your schedule, and get organized for the following semesters.

The Academic Advising Center is here to help you plan your curriculum not just for next semester but throughout your career at Tulane.
