Advising
Successful completion of any major at K-State is dependent on academic advising. The Department of Political Science boasts two award-winning advisors, Kathy Lillich (Political Science & History) and Dr. John Fliter (Political Science & Pre-Law). Each of our majors are paired with an advisor to help navigate course selection and make sure degree requirements are met.
Enrollment advising for current students happens twice a year; the end of October through the middle of November, and the end of March through the middle of April. Political Science majors are required to schedule an appointment with their academic advisor no more than two weeks prior to their open enrollment date.
Before enrollment advising starts, an "advisor hold" will be put on a student's account, meaning they cannot enroll in classes for next semester. This hold will not be removed until they meet with their advisor.
To schedule an enrollment advising appointment, first check your open enrollment date and the advisor that you are assigned in KSIS.
Advising Materials
Along with major requirements, students have basic requirements from their college that they must complete as well, in order to graduate. To make planning simpler, advisors utilize degree requirement sheets. Prepare for your advising appointment by reviewing the requirements of your degree.
