Creating Your First Semester Schedule

Advising Course Interest Form

The Advising Course Form will be used to indicate and submit your areas of interest for your 1st semester schedule at Elon.

Your schedule will be built based on your responses and completion of this form. Please be thoughtful about your selections and take time to do some research on course descriptions. Resources for course selection are provided at the bottom of this page.

Once the form is completed and submitted, you will then be prompted to select the day and time for your one-on-one, individualized advising session with a professional advisor.  This is a required meeting for every incoming new student.

During this session, you will have the opportunity to discuss your schedule, ask questions, request possible adjustments and provide any additional information. You will gain access to this form once you have deposited, indicating your commitment to attending Elon University.
