Re: [Advising] Excess Hours Waivers

Good afternoon advising team,
We have received a ruling form Office of General Council and have been working through details, revising forms and vetting things through. I hope to provide some final information to you by the end of next week.

Importance: High
Advising team,
We had a meeting this afternoon with our legal office regarding the excess hour waivers. Unfortunately the moratorium on waiving excess hours (30/45 hour petitions or C2G) will remain in effect until they receive a ruling from Office of General Council.
They are well aware of the challenge and awkward situation it is putting you in if the student wants to petition. As soon as I receive an update I will send an update.
Thank you for your patience.
Barbara

Subject: [Advising] Excess Hours Waivers
Importance: High
Good morning,
The policy regarding Excess Hour Waivers options available to institutions is being reviewed. Please hold off on processing any additional 30/45 hour petitions and Contracts to Graduate (C2G). If you have a student coming in to do the petition or C2G let them know that the process is on hold and that you will get back to them once we have an update.
There is a meeting tomorrow afternoon so I'm hopeful a decision can be rendered rather quickly.
Thanks everyone!
Barbara

Changes to DTC One Stop, Welcome Center, Career Center
by advising＠lists.sis.utsa.edu
Sent on behalf of UTSA Student Affairs - Division of Enrollment Services
Updates on the One Stop Enrollment Center
The One Stop Enrollment Center<http://www.utsa.edu/financialaid/about/> provides the front-line customer service for Undergraduate Admissions, Financial Aid and Scholarships, and Registrar. We have locations at both the Main Campus and Downtown Campus as well as a call center that students call to ask questions.
Due to increasing student demand at the Main Campus location paired with decreasing student traffic at our Downtown Campus location (FS 1.500) in the past several years, we have adjusted the staffing and hours of operation to properly accommodate both locations.
New Downtown One Stop Hours of Operation:
Mon - Fri
9 a.m. - 12 p.m.
1 p.m. - 5 p.m.
We will consistently have one (1) person available at the Downtown Campus location to answer student questions and take in paperwork throughout the summer. Students in need of more in-depth help are welcome (as they are now) to make an appointment with one of our Senior Counselors by calling 210-458-7169 or they can make appointments via Skype<http://www.utsa.edu/financialaid/about/skypeosec.html>. They can also always contact the One Stop call center at 210-458-8000 (or toll-free 800-669-0919) between 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Updates on the Welcome Center
The Downtown Welcome Center has closed its store front. Any admissions questions can be addressed at the One Stop Enrollment Center at the Downtown Campus. The UTSA Welcome Center is still offering tours at the Downtown Campus. Visitors and prospective students can visit the Welcome Center website<http://www.utsa.edu/welcomecenter/> and click the Daily Tour button to register for an upcoming Downtown Campus tour, submit a request for a special Group Tour, or view our Virtual Tour. For more information about UTSA or questions about the tours, email welcomecenter(a)utsa.edu<mailto:welcomecenter@utsa.edu> or call 210-458-5145.
Updates on the Career Center
The University Career Center downtown location has moved from the MNT 1.162 to the One Stop Enrollment Center (FS 1.504B). Career Center staff are available in person at the Downtown Campus office on Tuesdays and Thursdays and can be reached via email or phone on other days of the week. The phone number remains the same: 210-458-2910. Students at the Downtown Campus will be able to receive the same services they always have. For more information, visit the UTSA Career Center website<http://careercenter.utsa.edu/>.

Re: [Advising] DegreeWorks errors

The problem with DegreeWorks appears to be resolved, but if you continue to have problems, please send a note to DegreeWorks(a)utsa.edu<mailto:DegreeWorks@utsa.edu>. There was a caching problem on the server that was causing the computer to run out of memory while it was processing student records.
