WELCOME NEW AMS MASTERS STUDENTS!
WELCOME NEW AMS PhD STUDENTS!
TO: New AMS Graduate Students
FROM: Prof. Xiaolin Li, AMS Graduate Program Director
I want to extend a warm welcome to you as a new student to our graduate program. The AMS New Student Welcome Session will be held on Tuesday, August 28 at 4:00 p.m. in Physics Room P113. You will also need to attend an academic advisement session on Monday, August 27 OR Tuesday, August 28, 2007 in the Math Tower Building, First Floor, Room 1-122. (Please report to Christine Rota in the Math Tower Building, First Floor, Room 1-122 between 9:00 am and 12:00 pm to set up your advising appointment time.) There are also mandatory orientations sponsored by the Graduate School and the International Student Office Please visit their web site at the following link: http://www.grad.sunysb.edu/prospective/orientation/index.shtml.
COURSE REGISTRATION: Once you have been advised by an AMS faculty advisor, you may register via the SOLAR SYSTEM.
MAILBOXES: You will be assigned a mailbox by the first day of class. These boxes are located on the Plaza level (the main level) of the Math/Physics Building in an area marked “P-134”. Please look for your name alphabetically. The student’s mailboxes start approximately six rows over (after the faculty and staff boxes). If you do NOT see your box, please let me know and I will have one established for you. PLEASE CHECK YOUR MAILBOX WEEKLY.
COMPUTER ACCOUNTS: When you arrive for academic advising, we will provide a form for you to complete and return to Christine. In about three to five business days after classes have started, check your department mailbox for a notice which will give you further instructions as to how to proceed with your computer/email account. ALL AMS GRADUATE STUDENTS MUST HAVE AN ACCOUNT @AMS.SUNYSB.EDU. Please check your AMS account often for important information.
PARKING PERMITS: If you have a car, you MUST register your vehicle on campus and obtain a parking permit. You may apply for your parking permit on the Web at http://www.parking.sunysb.edu. You MUST be registered for classes BEFORE you apply for the parking permit.
IDENTIFICATION CARDS: The campus card is a wallet-sized identification card, which can be used for identification, library services, and campus meal plan services. You need to go to the campus card office located in the Administration Building Room 103 with a completed ID Card application and a picture ID. You MUST be registered for classes BEFORE you go for your I.D. card. The campus card office hours are: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 8:30 to 4:00 and Tuesday from 10:00 to 7:00. There is no fee for the first campus card, but there is a $25.00 fee to replace a lost card.
We are delighted to have you join our department, so please don't hesitate to contact me if I can be of any assistance.
