Advisement

With your acceptance letter to the University of Maryland School of Nursing, you received your advisor assignment. You should initiate contact with your advisor as soon as possible.

You will develop a Plan of Study with the support of your faculty advisor. Advising includes interpretation of program options, discussion of course requirements and course sequencing, and planning for career options, graduate and licensure and certification.

Faculty post open hours of availability. All BSN students must meet with their faculty advisors during the published pre-registration advisement period which precedes each semester. Faculty advisors must approve all course schedules. Students are responsible for contacting their advisors to make appointments for preregistration advising.

Changing Advisors

Extenuating circumstances may result in a request for a change in advisor. The student must submit the request in writing to the Associate Dean for Admissions and Student Affairs.
