Here are some additional helpful webpages/tools:
Note that this plan is not in your registration portal but in your DPR Planner.
Once your plan is complete, identify a faculty member with a common area of interest here:RTMUndergraduate Advisement and Planningor a faculty member you’ve already worked with and/or trusted. Then either meet during their office hours or email them to schedule a mutually agreeable appointment. If you are not getting a timely response (i.e., within two business days and considering holidays), emailto determine other options, as some faculty may be on personal, professional, or other leave (e.g., sabbatical, conferences, vacation, etc.).
It may be possible to get your hold removed if you have a good plan in place and do not need/want more advanced advising (e.g., career/professional advising) that would require an in-person or Zoom meeting. If so, when you reach out to a faculty member as described above, include in yourrequest for an appointment your student ID# and that your plan has been completed. The faculty member may be able to review your plan remotely, and if all is well, they may be able to release your hold and send you a confirmation email without ever having to meet in person or zoom. However, if you doneed/want more advanced advisingpleaseinclude some days and blocks of time (e.g., Mondays and Tuesdays from 2 to 4pm PDT) that work for you to find a mutually agreeable time to connect.

TheRTMDepartment maintains an email listserv that we use to send out important notifications about the program, mandatory meetings, and deadline reminders. We also use it to notify students of job and internship opportunities, grants and scholarships, conferences, and more. You are not automatically opted-in to this listserv, so please emailto request access at any time.
