Once your advising session has been completed, your theatre department advisor will send an email to Liu (and will copy you as well) that will contain all courses recommended and a copy of your updated advising sheet. Please retain a copy of this sheet somewhere safe and accessible on your computer for future reference.
You will then receive a confirmation from Liu that permission has been granted for you to register yourself into the courses. It is very important that you register for summer and fall at your earliest convenience. If you have any trouble with registration, please contact your theatre department advisor to let them know what the problem is.
