Did you know? Advising at UCF is now called Academic Success Coaching. Learn what this means for you here.
Wow! How is it already February?! Always seems like the beginning of the year flies by. But that doesn’t mean there’s not time for you and your student to check in on your goals!
What goals did your student set for the Spring semester and how are they going? Did you set goals as well that you want to revisit or recommit to?
February’s Pegasus Parent Post featured article is all about checking in on goals and reinforcing supportive resources and university timelines so you and your student can be successful this month and beyond.
Enjoy!
Your student might encounter some struggles this spring semester whether they newer to UCF or well into their degree program and getting ready to look towards graduation. In fact, upper-level courses are often designed to be taken in the Spring. Sometimes, students feel burdens during Spring because environments or structures to what they got used to during Fall semester have changed. If your student seems not confident with their academics, try to ask these questions and guide them with helpful resources UCF offers.
It's time to plan ahead for next year already!

Starting on Monday, March 6, Summer and Fall 2023 course registration enrollment date and times per student will be announced on students’ myUCF portal. Each student will be assigned an official time and date that course registration for these semesters will open for them.
Then, on Thursday, March 23, class registration for these upcoming terms will begin/open.
Before academic advisors’ offices gets too crowded around March 23 and onwards, encourage your student to begin scheduling an appointment with their advisor to start the conversation on their upcoming course registration plan.

Spring Break 2023 is from Monday, March 13 to Sunday, March 19!
Spring Break gives enough time for students to visit home, relax from hard academic work, or even experience facilitated programs like Alternative Spring Break or study abroad opportunities. If you and your students haven’t already, try to plan ahead on these things!
Even reminding your student about Spring Break might relieve their “middle of the semester” tension!
