Advising

Meeting with your Advisor

To schedule an advising appointment, School of Art undergraduate students should connect with the Art Academic Advisor, Jessica E. Park. Students can receive additional advising support through the Fulbright College Advising Center.

 

Scheduling An Appointment

If you have UASuccess access, feel free to schedule a virtual or in-person appointment with Dr. Park. For future students or general advising questions, please email Dr. Park. Check out these instructions on how to schedule an advising appointment via UA Success.

 

Preparing for your advising appointment

Review the catalog requirements for your degree.

1. Tentatively plan your schedule, have a list of classes and times you are requesting for the academic semester.
2. Have alternative courses noted in case your first choice is not available.

 

Planning your course schedule

All undergraduate art majors, with the exception of Art History, are required to take the Studio Foundations I and II courses (ARTS 1919 and 1929).

For more information about the Studio Foundations courses, check out the Foundations website for more information

In addition, all students in the School of Art studio program will start in the Bachelors of Arts Studio Art degree plan.

During the spring semester of the first year, students will apply to any of the Bachelor of Fine Arts programs in:

• Art Education
• Art History
• Graphic Design
• Studio Art

If accepted, students will follow their specific B.F.A. degree plan and change from the B.A. degree plan.

Students can track their progress in their School of Art degree plans with the aid of an advisor and their Degree Audit in UAConnect. Here are some helpful videos for learning to navigate UAConnect.
