Advisement & Enrollment

Students majoring in elementary education and early childhood education are generally advised by faculty in the department. New students to Cameron and those who need transfer work evaluated should work with the Academic Advising Center in N. Shepler room 113 (for more information see http://www.cameron.edu/advising-center). Faculty in the department and at the advising center will advise you about the best course sequence and necessary prerequisites. Typically, summer and fall enrollment begins after spring break and spring enrollment begins after fall break.

Students who wish to enroll during the first week of enrollment can sign up for an appointment with their advisors during the week before enrollment begins using sign up sheets outside each office. Students are encouraged to meet with their advisors for advisement before peak enrollment times to determine the best course sequence—this makes enrolling much easier.
