Thorough knowledge of the academic regulations and policies of the University and its academic divisions is essential for all students. Each student is expected to become familiar with The University of Alabama Academic Catalog and to consult with the academic advisors within the student's college of enrollment.
Each student is responsible for selecting and registering for the courses that are needed to maintain reasonable progress toward the desired degree and will satisfy all requirements for the desired degree by the time the student expects to graduate.
Students are expected to pursue successful completion of the courses for which they register.
Students are also responsible for the following:
- Maintain a current mailing address and a local residence address on file. Students may make address and phone number updates in myBama.
- On-campus residents (including those who live in fraternity and sorority housing) must complete the Missing Student Contact Information in myBama.
- Review all communications received from The University of Alabama and submit prompt responses as necessary.
- Developing and maintaining an academic plan and monitoring his or her academic progress via DegreeWorks, the University's degree audit application.
