[00:00:01.050]Hey, I'm Elisa from the Explore Center,
[00:00:04.860]the academic advising home for Undecided, Pre-Health, Pre-Law students and any
[00:00:09.630]student working to meet requirements for other colleges or majors,
[00:00:13.380]such as Pre-Engineering. We've got 10 academic advisors,
[00:00:17.400]and you're going to be meeting with one of them soon to talk about the
[00:00:19.830]transition to UNL and registering purposes.
[00:00:23.720]We have five tips to help you prepare for that advising meeting.
[00:00:28.610]Tip number one, come prepared with your NUID number and your password.
[00:00:32.930]This is what you've been using to log into MyRed.
[00:00:35.210]This is also what you'll be using in your meeting with your advisor to enroll in
[00:00:39.380]courses. Tip number two:
[00:00:42.650]Think about majors that you might be interested in.
[00:00:45.530]You can browse our admissions website for a full list of options.
[00:00:48.650]And that way you can ask your advisor more questions about various majors.
[00:00:53.720]Tip number three, let your advisor know in your meeting
[00:00:56.840]if you've got any AP, dual enrollment, or
[00:00:59.750]IB credit from high school classes that you might have college credit for.
[00:01:04.160]We'll be able to chat with you a little bit more about what that applies towards and
[00:01:07.550]how that's going to help you during your time at UNL. Now
[00:01:11.930]tip number four, during our meeting,
[00:01:14.150]we're probably going to mention or talk about ACE courses.
[00:01:17.960]ACE, or Achievement Centered Education, is UNL's general education
[00:01:22.520]program.
[00:01:23.120]So when you've heard people talk about 'gen eds' that they need to take in college,
[00:01:27.350]ACE is we call those at UNL. Regardless of your major,
[00:01:31.460]all students at UNL are probably going to take one class in 10 ACE categories
[00:01:36.170]in areas such as English, math, humanities, and several others.
[00:01:41.210]So begin thinking about what types of ACE classes interest you.
[00:01:44.900]There are ACE course options that you can find on the academic advising
[00:01:48.200]inventory located in MyRed.
[00:01:50.210]And that's one thing you're going to need to complete before you have your
[00:01:52.910]advising meeting anyways.
[00:01:54.410]So might as well take advantage to see what you would be interested.
[00:01:58.880]Tip number five, if you've got questions, bring any
[00:02:02.180]and all of them to your advising meeting.
[00:02:04.730]We as advisors are here to support in any way we can
[00:02:07.490]as you make the transition to UNL, and if we don't know the answer,
[00:02:10.790]we know someone who does, so make sure that you ask the questions that you need to.
[00:02:16.850]We are so excited to meet with you and learn more about your academic goals.
[00:02:20.990]Hope you have a good rest of your day, and we will see you soon.
