New freshmen are contacted by a professional advisor to set an advising appointment.

New Transfer Students and Other New Students

New transfer students, new degree-seeking post-baccalaureate students, and students returning to UA Little Rock after having not enrolled for two years are contacted by one of the college advising centers to be connected with an advisor.
