Advising

Advising

Advising is required immediately when a student declares Education as a major and at least once during a semester term. Faculty advisors are assigned once the School of Education receives a major declaration form from the student. The School of Education will notify the student by email of their Education faculty advisor and contact information. During the first initial advising meeting, faculty advisors will discuss Tougaloo College’s Educator Preparation Program (EPP) and requirements for successful completion.
