ADVISING AND REGISTRATION
To ensure students receive both personal and professional assistance in navigating through
curricula and university requirements toward degree completion and graduation, each
student is assigned to an academic adviser (either professional or faculty adviser). Advisers
are available to assist students with issues related to degree planning, course selection,
withdrawals, degree requirements, academic policies, academic difficulty, campus resources,
internships/practicum opportunities and career/graduate school planning.
Academic advising and registration take place in the fall for the following spring and summer
semesters and in the spring for the fall term. Registration dates can be found on the academic
calendar. Each student is assigned a specific date and time, which will be determined
when iROAR (Clemson’s student information system website where students can view their
personal, financial and academic information) is set to open course registration for them.
This date and time is based on class standing and number of credit hours earned. In order for
a student to be granted access to register at their assigned date and time, they must first meet
with their academic adviser. Students can find the name of their assigned academic adviser
by logging into iROAR, clicking on the Student tab and then Student Profile. Each college
and major coordinates advising differently. Students should expect to be contacted by their
adviser approximately one month in advance of open registration. If this doesn’t happen, the
student should contact their adviser to find out about their specific advising date and time.

PARENT TESTIMONIAL
“The transition to college is often difficult
with students having to manage being
away from home for the first time.
The academic challenges can seem
overwhelming for many. The Academic
Success Center is a wonderful resource
to encourage students who just need
some confidence and aid those students
who need to develop good study habits
and time management. My two children
both took advantage of the expertise
offered by the Academic Success
Center and have been on the dean’s
list several times.”
