Registrar

Each student at Muskingum is assigned an Academic Advisor upon entry into the University. For most students their first Academic Advisor is their First-Year Seminar instructor. Students are free to change advisors whenever they would like, but typically they only change advisors when they choose or change majors. As part of the Major Declaration process, students choose or are assigned an advisor in their major discipline. Students with multiple majors or those seeking licensure may have multiple advisors at any given time.

The Academic Advisor is responsible for helping the student navigate through the academic requirements in pusuit of his/her individual academic goals. At least once each semester the student will meet with his/her advisor and discuss which courses the student should register for the next semester. This meeting typically includes a review of the student's degree audit, four-year plan, and course availability for the subsequent semester. During this process the advisor will click on the "Review Complete" link in the student's academic planner, this will permit the student to enroll in courses via MuskieLink.  A video on how to do this is available in Microsoft Teams under the Faculty Information channel.
