1. What kind of tools do you provide to help me choose a major?

        Our office provides a Strong Interest Inventory that any student may access by coming by our office and taking a few minutes out of their schedule to complete.  We usually receive the results back within two weeks at which time you will be e-mailed notification of it's arrival.  You may schedule an appointment  with the director to review your results.

2. How do I change my major?

        Any student may come by our office and obtain a change of major form and have one of our office personnel approve the change.  You then take the change of major to the "new" declared major and obtain a signature from your new assigned advisor.  ***You must return the change of  major form to the Records Office in order to complete this process.***

3. Where can I find the schedule of classes?

        Students may access the schedule bulletin on the web at  www.tntech.edu/records/catalogs_schedules.html.  

4. How do I drop and add courses during the semester?

        Students may drop and add any time during the pre-registration and regular registration phases.  You may access your schedule by using Eagle-online to complete this process.  However, you may not drop the following courses without going to the Registration Center help window:  any ADP courses, ENGL 1010 or ENGL 1020, and UNIV1020.   ***AFTER THE LAST DAY TO REGISTER, ADD, OR CHANGE SECTIONS STUDENTS MUST SEE THEIR ASSIGNED ADVISOR TO OBTAIN A DROP/ADD CARD TO COMPLETE THIS PROCESS.  

ALL DROP/ADD CARDS, ONCE SIGNED,  MUST BE RETURNED TO THE REGISTRATION CENTER HELP WINDOW.

6. Where and when will I get notified for advisement? 

        Our department will contact you through your campus mail, e-mail, and/or voice-mail.  All students need to access their e-mail and voice mail accounts once enrolled in order to receive important campus information.  We usually notify students during the semester for advisement notifications, registration information, mid-term progress reporting, and various informational deadline dates.
