5 But before we start, are you in the right place? This is Biology major advising for freshmen who entered in Fall Your a^endance unal the end of the session will release your registraaon hold for Fall 2014 classes. (Note there is no registraaon hold for Bio majors for Summer 2014 classes.)
6 But before we start, are you in the right place? Q: How do I change my major to something other than Bio? A: Go to Admissions and Records (LH- 114) and fill out the Change of Academic ObjecAve form ($10 fee). When you bring the form to the Bio Dept to be signed, the Bio Dept staff will release your hold.
7 QUIZ: How well do you know your major? Today, we will cover frequently asked quesaons on these topics: RegistraAon Courses: Bio, Math, Chem, and GEs Grades GraduaAon Careers and Research
8 Q: If I m working 20 hours per week, how many units should I register for?
9 Q: If I m working 20 hours per week, how many units should I register for? A: Working 20 hours/week, the recommended maximum is 9-12 units. The more hours you re working, the fewer units you should be taking. School is like a job! (see guidelines next slide)
10 PLANNING YOUR COURSEWORK Q: If I m working 20 hours per week, Many how CSUF many students work. units This should impacts the I amount register of time students for? have outsid of class to study. If You Are Employed: (Hours Per Week) Then Your School Work Should Be: (Maximum Units Per Semester) This plan is based on a 60-hour work week (employment plus school work, and not including other time commitments, such as commuting) and the need to study for: 2 hours for each 3 hours lab 3 hours for each 1 hour lecture If You Complete: You Will Graduate In: 30 units per year... 4 years 24 units per year... 5 years
11 Q: I want to take more units because I feel like I m behind. Most Bio majors graduate in 4 years, right?
12 Q: I want to take more units because I feel like I m behind. Most Bio majors graduate in 4 years, right? A: No, only about 10% of Bio majors finish in 4 years. Most Bio majors graduate in 5, 6, or 7 years. (So please do not overload yourself with units because you feel behind! Your grades will suffer.)
13 Q: What does upper division mean?
14 Q: What does upper division mean? A: Upper division means level. Note ALL community college courses are lower- division.
15 Q: If I want to take a course at a community college, how do I get transfer credit for the course?
16 Q: If I want to take a course at a community college, how do I get transfer credit for the course? A: Check the transfer course equivalencies at When the course is over, have the community college send your transcript to Admissions and Records.
17 Q: Where can I find out the prerequisites for a course I want to take?
18 Q: Where can I find out the prerequisites for a course I want to take? A: Check the course descripaon on TITAN ONLINE or in the Course Catalog.
19 Q: If the secaon I want to take is full (i.e. for Biol 172), should I enroll in a different secaon and put myself on the waitlist for the secaon I want?
20 Q: If the secaon I want to take is full (i.e. for Biol 172), should I enroll in a different secaon and put myself on the waitlist for the secaon I want? A: Read the waitlist guidelines (in the RegistraAon Guide from Admissions & Records)! You will NOT get into a class that you re waitlisted for IF: (1) you re enrolled in another secaon of the same course, (2) there is a Ame conflict with a course you re enrolled in, or (3) that course would exceed your unit limit for the term.

30 Q: I heard rumors that the classes in the Bio major are changing soon. What should I do?
31 Q: I heard rumors that the classes in the Bio major are changing soon. What should I do? A: ConAnue to follow the current course curriculum! In Fall 2014, we expect that all Bio core courses (Biol 171, 172, 273, and 274) will be 4 units instead of 5 units, to accommodate demand. Requirements and units for the major will be adjusted accordingly. Once any curricular changes are finalized, there will be a matrix to show how you can finish the degree with the courses you have already completed.
