Find your College of Education & Human Development advisor, learn when advising happens, and get help as a transfer or continuing student at UL Lafayette.
Your academic advisor is your primary contact for academic information and advice, from program requirements and registration to your internship or teacher residency.
Finding Your Advisor
Your advisor is assigned by the Office of Student Services. Find your advisor's name and contact information in ULink.
Advisors meet with students by appointment during the two-week advising periods in March and October each year — check the University Academic Calendar for dates. Group advising is available for some majors.
Transfer Students
New transfer students are advised for their first semester by the Assistant Dean in the Office of Student Services, who completes a credit evaluation of your coursework from other colleges and universities. Your faculty advisor uses that evaluation in later semesters.
Call 337-482-6681 to schedule your appointment.
Continuing Students
Learn about advising sessions for your major on your department's website:
- Department of Educational Curriculum & Instruction advising
- Department of Educational Foundations & Leadership advising
- Department of Counseling advising
- School of Kinesiology advising
Appealing an Academic Suspension
If you were placed on academic suspension at the end of the previous semester, you must appeal by the posted deadline early in the next semester:
- Call the Office of Student Services at 337-482-6681 to schedule a suspension appeal with the Assistant Dean.
- Pick up a current transcript from the Registrar's Office in Martin Hall, Room 170.
- Write a letter to the Assistant Dean requesting an appeal and explaining why you did not earn a 2.0 cumulative GPA.
- Meet with the Assistant Dean to complete the Committee on Academic Appeals and Standards (CAAS) form.
- Wait for the Registrar's Office decision. Students with three or fewer appeals are processed quickly; four or more appeals go to the full committee and may take several days.
- If approved, register for classes following the committee's and Assistant Dean's course and credit-hour recommendations.
