<p>I attend a very large state school and have never even met with an advisor.. let alone know where to find one. At a school like this, who do I ask? An academic counselor? I can't believe they ask for this!</p>
<p>(The school is uc berkeley)</p>
<p>This is also a “statement of good standing” for some schools…</p>
<p>I just listed one of the advisors in my major department when I transferred out of my large state school. I didn’t have one assigned, but I told her I was transferring and asked her if I should put her info down on the app (she said that was what I should do).</p>
<p>I took the “statement of good standing” to my registrar, because I’d never met a dean in my life. They told me it’d take a while because it had to go through a bunch of other offices, but it seems that the form made it eventually.</p>
<p>maybe im late or something…</p>
<p>since when did we need a college official report form?!?!?!?!</p>
<p>i thought all we had to do was the January update…???</p>
<p>I also go to UC Berkeley (I’m in L&S) and just put n/a on the advisor’s contract info section in the Common App…made a note at the end that AFAIK, we don’t get indiv advisors. It’s a drop in basis, I think.</p>
<p>For the “statement of good standing,” you have to fill out a release form and pay a fee at the registrar’s office. They’ll also fill out the disciplinary + academic form the advisor is supposed to do. (Make sure to turn in multiple copies!) Or so they’re supposed to. The schools I’m applying to haven’t gotten them yet, apparently.</p>
