Mandatory Advising
If you are a freshman or a sophomore student, you are required to receive mandatory advising in each of your first four semesters here at UHM. If you have not declared a major, are a pre-major (except for Pre-Psychology, Pre-Nursing, and Pre-Dental Hygiene), or are a Biology major, you may fulfill your mandatory advising requirement through one of our mandatory advising sessions. If you have declared a major, or are Pre-Psychology, Pre-Nursing, or Pre-Dental Hygiene, you will need to see your major advisor to get cleared for mandatory advising! However, if you are interested in health or law, we highly recommend that you also attend one of our mandatory advising sessions. The purpose of mandatory advising is to make sure you are aware of graduation requirements, college resources, and opportunities.

You should be completing mandatory advising in the order listed above. If, for any reason, you missed one of these sessions and are now “off track” (i.e., you are a 3rd semester student who has not yet completed the Sophomore Experience), we recommend that you speak to a PAC Peer Advisor to find out which mandatory advising session is most appropriate for you.
If your Mandatory Advising registration hold has not been lifted, and you have not completed Mandatory Advising, please visit your college advisor for more information.
