What is the most common mistake made by Asian and Middle Eastern Studies majors?
Failure to consult early regularly with an advisor listed on the masthead for the AMES Program in the ORC. Because the requirements for the AMES degree are flexible, many students tend to be casual about the way they design their program. This can cause many opportunities for coordination of foreign study with on-campus degree requirements, or to gain adequate preparation for advanced research or language work, to be missed. Students should consult with advisors early and often to ensure that their study plans have coherence and depth.
