Welcome to the Roy H. Park School of Communications!

Here’s how to get your best fall class schedule.

First-year Students

Ithaca College’s team of academic advising experts have used your Academic Interests Survey answers to construct a personalized schedule that includes:

  • At least one course in your major or pathway 
  • Your required first-year Ithaca Seminar
  • One or two elective or core curriculum courses that will help you meet your graduation requirements, learn transferable skills, and explore some new subjects that align with your interests.
  • A total of at least 14 credits. (Although your tuition covers up to 18 credits, we advise first year students not to exceed 16 to 17 credits in your first semester unless required by your major.)
Final Schedules for First-Year Students Now Available

Your final schedule will be available on July 30, 2025 in HomerConnect! (Please click on the link below for instructions on how you will be able to access it.) You will be assigned a faculty advisor in mid-August, prior to the start of orientation. If you have questions before then, email commdeansoffice@ithaca.edu or call 1-607-274-1021.

Your schedule will reflect our best course recommendations based on the requirements of your major as well as the interests you shared on your Academic Interests Survey. It is designed to set you up to succeed not only during your first semester but throughout your IC experience.

HOW TO ACCESS YOUR SCHEDULE

Transfer Students

You will meet with an advisor in mid-May to mid-June to craft your schedule. Please review the email you received regarding making that advising appointment or email commdeansoffice@ithaca.edu for more information.
