The following information should be helpful for you as you plan and prepare for our advising meeting.  \nIn preparation of your advising appointment, please send me email with details regarding the below  items ASAP:   \n1. You are currently enrolled in the Insect Biology Program. If this is NOT correct, let me know via email ([apendle@purdue.edu](apendle@purdue.edu) ) right away!  \n2. I need to know about any college credits earned before your first semester at Purdue. Think about AP courses, dual credit course, or any other college courses you have taken. If you have not  had the credits sent to Purdue yet, please send them to [admissions@purdue.edu](admissions@purdue.edu) ASAP! Some of these courses may exempt you from needing to take a required course at Purdue. I can’t just go by your word; Purdue must have the official grade/transcript on record and it takes a few weeks for them to be processed. You can find instructions on how to submit transcripts to Purdue here.  \n3. In order to register for a Math course, you will need to either have a high enough SAT or ACT Math score for your required course (typically MA 16010) or you must complete the ALEKS test prior to your advising appointment so we can place you in the correct Math course. Please see the following link with the guidelines and, if needed take the ALEKS placement exam before your advising  \nappointment.  \n[https://www.math.purdue.edu/academic/undergrad/placement](https://www.math.purdue.edu/academic/undergrad/placement)  \n\n| Course | Description | SAT Math | ACT Math | ALEKS |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| MA 15800 | Precalculus | 570 | 24 | 60 |\n| MA 16010 | Applied Calculus I | 620 | 26 | 75 |\n|  |  |  |  |  |\n\n4. Check your Purdue email every day for important information.  \n5. Let me know if you are in a Learning community, Honors Program, Dean’s Scholars, Purdue Promise, Band or an Athletic Team.  \n6. Let me know if you have a Disability and would like to meet with someone from the Disability Resource Center.  \n7. Check your login to your myPurdue page. If you have problems with the login process, please contact information Technology at Purdue (ITAP) at (765) 494-4000.  \nYou will receive an email from me regarding scheduling your online advising appointment once your PUR 101 experience is complete. I encourage you to find a quiet and private space for our zoom appointment.  \nPlease feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns!  \nI look forward to receiving an email from you soon with the above-mentioned details and seeing you soon for our advising meeting.  \nAmanda Wilson  \nIBIO Academic Advisor  \n[apendle@purdue.edu](apendle@purdue.edu)  \n[https://ag.purdue.edu/department/entm/pur-101.html](https://ag.purdue.edu/department/entm/pur-101.html)","cbCailBIDUAVPFG0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailBIDUAVPFG0","pdf",172783,"English","# Advising preparation checklist\n## Enrollment confirmation and transcripts\n## Math course placement requirements\n## Ongoing updates: email, myPurdue, support needs","[{\"question\":\"What information should be emailed before the advising appointment?\",\"answer\":\"Send email details confirming current enrollment in the Insect Biology Program, plus information on any prior college credits.
