New Student Advising and Registration

Thursday, August 05, 2021

UA-PTC Students

Welcome to UA - Pulaski Technical College! If you have any questions about your academic advising experience, please do not hesitate to contact us!

New Student Orientation (NSO)

Incoming freshmen and transfer students are required to attend New Student Orientation at the beginning of their first semester at UA-PTC. NSO gives students the opportunity to learn valuable information about the College, how financial aid works, processes and procedures, and how to be a successful student at UA-PTC.

New Student Folder

Please read the New Student Folder. This includes important information for you to review, regarding deadlines and things you need to know as a new student.

Preparing for your first advising session

You can’t be advised until you have completed the admission process and have been fully-accepted to the College. Here are some things to work on until that process is complete:

Check out our Programs of Study and Degree Plans prior to your session
See if any of these spark your interest. If you already know what you want your major to be, print that degree plan and bring it with you.

Familiarize yourself with the Course Schedule
This is where you’ll find available courses by looking at their “Department” or “Course Code” (Example: ENGL 1311 English Composition I). You can also see when and where classes will meet. Most of our classes meet either Mondays/Wednesdays (MW) or Tuesdays/Thursdays (TR). Remember, we don’t typically have classes on Fridays!

Write down a list of questions
It is important to ask your advisor about concerns you may have or questions about your degree program. The more questions you ask, the better prepared you’ll be to succeed! You can find the answers to many questions on our Frequently Asked Questions page.

Once you have been fully accepted to the College, you will be ready to meet with an academic advisor, and register for classes. You can do this one of two ways:

  1. Set up your Campus Portal
  2. Clicking this link for an appointment: New Student Appointment
  3. As a walk-in: No appointment is necessary! Drop by our office Monday-Friday 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. We are located in the Campus Center Building Room 337 on the Main campus in North Little Rock, and Room 105 at the Little Rock-South site.
