Advisement

USC Annenberg advisors are available to meet with students in person and via Zoom to discuss their schedules and future plans.

You may leave a message at (213) 740-0900 or at our general email at ascjadv@usc.edu.

Spring 2027 Pre-Registration Advisement

Freshmen, sophomores, recently admitted Annenberg majors, as well as those on academic probation, are required to meet with an advisor once per semester for pre-registration advisement. Meetings are scheduled based on class standing, which reflects the number of units completed. Please review the Advisement Flyer for details.

Non-Major Advisement

Non-majors are encouraged to attend an information session to learn about Annenberg’s majors and minors. Non-major students may RSVP for these information sessions on the following website. After the mandatory advisement period ends, advisors will be able to meet with non-majors for an appointment after November 13. To schedule an appointment to meet with an Annenberg advisor, please create a referral in Advise USC for your program of interest and mark yourself as “Ready for Advising.” You will then be assigned a referral advisor with whom you can meet during non-major advising. If you have questions, please send an email to ascjadv@usc.edu.

Spring 2027 JOUR/PR D-Clearance Process

Spring 2027 D-Clearances will begin in mid-October and will be issued based on program, class standing, and graduation date first, and then on a first-come, first-served basis. Submitting the online D-clearance form does not issue D-clearance, nor does it guarantee that you will receive D-clearances for your first choice. Please plan for alternative courses while you wait for D-clearance approval.

Clearance dates will be announced on the D-Clearance flyer, which will be available to students in October.

You will NOT receive an email notification when you are cleared for a course. Instead, please check WebReg -> myInfo -> Cleared Sections. Clearances are processed every Wednesday and Friday. 

Registration

If you receive clearance, you are responsible for registering for the course on Web Registration. Annenberg Advisement cannot add or drop courses for you.
