Undergraduate Information
Selecting courses, advising prior to registration, providing information regarding
college and university requirements, transfer programs, and guiding students along
the path to graduation and beyond are just a few of the services provided by the Biology Advising and Resource Center (BARC).
All Biology majors that have completed CHEM 1110/1111 should come to the BARC for
advising, unless they have arranged for a faculty advisor. Students that have not
yet successfully passed CHEM 1110/1111 are generally seen by advisors in the ACC-Academic Advising Center.
All students should come to the BARC for general information on Biology Permits, Degree Requirements, and Career Information.
