Step 1. Go to B.O.S.S.

Step 2. Select “Student B.O.S.S. Login.” This will put you on a “Student Login” page.

Step 3. Insert your campus-wide ID number (CWID) into the “Student ID” field. Insert the eight digits only, no dashes.

Step 4. Insert your B.O.S.S. personal identification (PIN) number into the PIN field. Your pin is six digits.

Step 5. Click the “Login” button. If all the information is filled out correctly, this action will lead you to your student page.

Step 6. In the blue bar at the top of the screen, choose “Student Records”, and then “Advisor”. The name and office number of your advisor should be available here.

If you have any questions or if you think that your advisor is listed incorrectly in B.O.S.S., contact Michael Gilmore at mwgil@latech.edu or 318.257.2382 or Woodard Hall, Room 106.

Different advisors use different sign-up and advising procedures. Below is a list of the procedures that each advisor uses; please find your advisor and follow the instructions provided.

1. Figure out the category in which you’ll be registering for next term. See this page to determine when your registration window will open. If you are an athlete, veteran, honors-program student, or graduate student, you should have all of the information that you need. If you don’t fall into one or more of these categories, log on to B.O.S.S. using the “Student B.O.S.S. Login” link. In the blue bar at the top of the screen, choose “Student Records”, and then “Unofficial Transcript”. Look at the number of Earned Hours on that transcript. Add to that number the number of hours in which you are currently enrolled. This number – Earned Hours plus current hours enrolled – indicates the category in which you’ll be registering.
2. Obtain at least one advising form (from, e.g., the Psychology main office). You may use this electronic, fillable version of the form as well.
3. Examining your plan of study (in many cases also available from the Psychology main office) and/or the Psychology Curriculum and also examining the list of available courses (here, paying special attention to whether courses are full just before your advising appointment), complete a plan of courses to take for the next term and fill out the advising form with those courses and any backups that you identify.
4. Bring the completed advising form (with course numbers, sections, call numbers, dates, and times) and a pen to your advising appointment! If your advising appointment is online, please email the advising form to your advisor prior to your meeting and have it available during the meeting.
5. Think about what career/plan-of-study/life questions you have for your advisor and bring those with you also!
6. Remember to remind your advisor to release your advising hold at the end of your advising meeting. If you forget this, they may also forget – and then you won’t be able to register when your advising window opens!
