Early Bird Advising
Early Bird Advising (EBA) is a two-week event conducted in the fall term and a one-week event conducted in the spring at each instructional site of Georgia Highlands College. It provides ready access to advisors for students who wish to discuss long-term course planning in order to make certain they can complete their programs or transfer goals on a timely basis. Generally, early-bird advising sessions do not cover the selection of specific classes, days, and times for a particular semester. Instead, advisors and students focus on how to meet the requirements of an entire program or transfer to a four-year institution in the most efficient manner across several semesters. Questions, such as how a change of major would affect existing credits, are also covered during Early Bird Advising for those considering a course of study change.
Two weeks prior to EBA, posters at each site will show the advisors available in each discipline and students will be able to make appointments with an advisor in their discipline, major, or interest.
Early Bird Advising dates for the 2011-2012 school year are:
- Fall 2011: October 17 - October 28
- Spring 2012: March 19 - March 23
