GENERAL INFORMATION
Academic advising is essential to ensure a successful academic experience at Cal Poly Pomona. The department encourages Music Majors to meet regularly with their advisors as needed in order to understand university policies, curriculum changes, and/or department policies which may impact a student’s academic progress. While the department recognizes the importance of interaction amongst peers, it strongly recommends that questions regarding official policies, classes, curriculum, graduation requirements, etc., be answered by faculty members and not by other students.
- All Music Majors are assigned an academic advisor.
- Assignments are determined by emphasis area or by special needs such as at-risk students.
- Advisor lists are posted near the department office and on several faculty bulletin boards.
- “Back-up advisors" - Students are encouraged to see their regular advisors for any advising problems. However, in an urgent situation, any currently approved advisor may be consulted or asked to sign a petition, etc. when the student's advisor is not available.
- Other resources can be found at the University advising website. Go to: http://academic.csupomona.edu/broncocompass/ You will find many answers to a variety of questions including advising tools, policies, degree requirements, transfer credit, testing, deadlines, support services, tips for success and more!
- E-mail: In an attempt to improve communication with advisors and faculty, we request that you either use your Cal Poly e-mail address and/or have your Cal Poly e-mail forwarded to your regular e-mail address at aol, hotmail, or whatever service you use.

ANNUAL ADVISING WORKSHOP
- All Music Majors are advised at least once a year at the winter quarter Advising Workshop.
- Students who do not attend the Advising Workshop will have a hold placed on their registration which may delay their registration for the following Fall quarter. To remove the hold, the student must contact the advisor and schedule an advising appointment.
- Students with special needs may schedule an appointment during any quarter with their advisors for individual help. Special needs may include:
- Transfer credit evaluation
- Petitions
- Change of emphasis area
- Problems with the grad check
- Help with university forms
- Questions regarding math, English and other GE courses
- General information about course offerings
- Other problems that may be interfering with the academic progress of the student
AT-RISK ADVISING
- "At-risk" students are those who have a GPA below 2.2. The university computing system automatically places a hold on their registration. They must see the music department at-risk advisor for removal of the hold.
- The "At-risk" advisor is Dr. Levine.
