Faculty Advisor

Your faculty advisor is the person who will assist you in registering for classes and counsel you regarding your major program. In most cases, your advisor's name is in your acceptance letter. Check with Victoria Chadbourne if you do not know your advisor's name. A final list will be posted after the first week of school.

In the case of Music Education majors, the Chair will assign you an advisor from the Music Education Committee in the appropriate applied concentration. This advisor will remain your acting advisor until the Music Application Form for Student Teaching has been submitted. At that time, you will be assigned to the Coordinator of Music Education who will assist you in your final year of degree work.
