FRESHMEN, SOPHOMORES & JUNIORS: Registration for Fall 2008 began on April 21st — have you met with your advisor to discuss what courses you should register for, etc? You should logon to UDSIS anytime to access your Registration Appointment if you haven't already. We recommend that you work on your schedule before meeting with your Academic Advisor; it will help you both to make the most of your advisement appointment. Are you planning to take a course at another institution over Summer Session? Before doing so you must complete a Transfer Credit Evaluation form, which requires the approval of Dean Yackoski. This form is only available at the University Transfer Center, located in the Student Services Building at 30 Lovett Avenue. They will be glad to go over the process with you. Keep in mind that you must receive a C or better in order for the course to transfer, and if you don't get permission ahead of time, there is no guarantee that UD will accept the courses you take elsewhere. If you are planning to graduate this spring, you should have received by now information in the mail regarding where to go and what to do. The UD Commencement Booklet was sent to the local and permanent address of every graduating senior, and if you haven't yet received it, all the information contained in this mailing is available online, including details regarding our college Convocation. SENIORS: Graduating UD seniors are invited to attend UD's annual Senior Day festivities, from 2-5 p.m., Friday, May 16, on the North Green. Seniors who register online will be entered in drawings to win various prizes, including a flat-screen TV, TiVos, GPS navigation systems, a WSFS ATM withdrawal challenge, a Hardrock Sport mountain bike and other prizes from Boscov's, gift certificates to area restaurants and much more. Free hot dogs, soft pretzels, soda and water will be available - don't miss it! Have you found the job that's just for you? If not you should take advantage of the Bank of America Career Services Center. They can provide you with lots of leads and all the tools you need to successfully navigate the job application and interview process.
