You can customize the "Advising Dashboard" to better serve your needs. You have several options, and defaults are shown hilighted in gray:
| Sort my Advisee List | Alphabetical by Advisee name within year | Group advisees by category (such as Class of 10, Class of 09) and then sort by name within each category. |
| Alphabetical by Advisee name | Sort all advisees by name only. | |
| Include advisee photos on page | Yes | Determine whether small images are to be included with the list of advisees. |
| No | ||
| When between terms show my advisees as of | The term just completed | Provides an accurate historic view of advisee lists. Useful during the summer to pick up graduating seniors. |
| The term just about to begin | Provides most up-to-date view of advisees. Useful to identify when a student will change status (for example, full time to part time). | |
| Display height of new comment box | 20 | Provide plenty of space when adding new comments into the folder |
| Display height of old comments box | 7 | Show old comments briefly (though, scrolling is enabled) |
| By default new comments should be available to | Me only | Restrict access to comment so other advisors will not be able to read this comment. Use when you wish to keep a comment private between yourself and your advisee |
| Any advisor for student | Other advisors of the student (for example, double majors) can see this comment. Also, should the student change advisors, then this comment will be visible to any new advisor | |
| By default new comments will be available to student: | Yes | Make the comment available to the student |
| No | Ensure that student cannot read the comment | |
| Communication methods | Telephone | Tell advisees of a phone number (such as cell phone or office phone) where you can be reached |
| Other | Tell advisees of an alternate way to be reached (such as AIM text, off-campus email or a cell phone number) | |
| Inform me of: | CDR Status | Show MQP/IQP/Suff completions |
| NRs | Show when a student has NRd a course in the current or past term | |
| Change in Academic Status | Show when students become suspended, or complete a suspension | |
| A load of more than [10.5] credit hours | Useful for detecting when students overload. Note that the value reflects a full load of three courses plus one PE class | |
| A load of less than [6] credit hours | Useful to detect when students register for less than a full load of classes (i.e., an underload) | |
| Comments changed in the last [60] days | Useful to identify those students that have active comments | |
| Schedule changes in the last [60] days | Useful to identify those students who have uploaded a revised proposed schedule |
