Advising Matters posterSecond-Semester Freshman Mandatory Advising

All second-semester freshmen (meaning, currently enrolled freshmen who began at Fresno State in fall 2011) are required to complete this requirement before being cleared to register for fall 2012 classes during priority registration week, April 23-27.

On May 18 this hold (labeled "FT3" in your Student Center) was lifted for the remaining students who had not satisfied this requirement.
