ACADEMIC ADVISING
The University Advising Center provides advising for General Studies requirements for freshman and sophomore students. The Center also provides a system which alerts new freshmen and sophomores to potential academic problems. Students are notified by letter of unacceptable progress and urged to meet with their advisors to discuss possible remedies.
All degree-seeking junior and senior students are assigned faculty advisors by the department housing the program in which the student is majoring. Junior and senior students should contact the chairperson of their major department to obtain the name of their academic advisor.
Advising for College of Business students is available in the College of Business Advising Center; for College of Education students, advising is available through the College of Education Advising Center.
Teacher Education Student Services (TESS) is the central campus office for all student information relating to teacher education. This office admits students into teacher education programs and into student teaching, distributes certification applications, and makes recommendations for certification.

Medical Statement
Every student must complete a "Medical History" form provided by the Division of Student Affairs. The form must be forwarded to the UWF Health Center before registration. The University of West Florida reserves the right to refuse admission to any applicant whose health record indicates the existence of a condition which may be harmful to members of the University community.
The Board of Regents requires all entering students born in or after 1957 to provide proof of measles (rubeola and rubella) immunization. There are further restrictions regarding the age at which, and year, immunization was received. Students should contact the Health Center for complete details.
Each semester Student Affairs sponsors an orientation for new lower-division students. Parents of new students are also encouraged to attend an orientation session. Orientation lasts two days and is designed to acquaint students with the University and to facilitate students' choices of courses, registration, and completion of other necessary procedures. During orientation, student mentors meet as peer advisors with incoming freshmen. New students receive information about orientation by mail after they have been admitted.
Each degree-seeking student is assigned to a faculty member to assist in planning academic programs; to provide guidance in personal, academic, and professional development; and to foster interaction among students and faculty.
