Each semester keep an eye out for an email from your advisor -- Biology majors will receive an email with instructions for departmental advising for registration. Go to the 'Academic Calendar' on the Registrar’s webpage (http://registrar.ua.edu/) to determine your registration time assignment based on your classification and number of hours completed.
For a list of anticipated future course offerings check the Schedule of course offerings (Note: this is subject to change).
If you are a freshman: sign up for an advising appointment with A&S in 200 Clark Hall and have them help you set up your DegreeWorks plan. You can make an appointment online for advising in Clark Hall at http://appointment.as.ua.edu/.

FALL 2020 Walk-in Advising: CANCELLED! Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Department of Biological Sciences will not be offering walk-in advising this semester. You must have your PIN cleared by your assigned advisor.
