学术顾问

There are two types of academic advisors at 国外博彩app (SU):

  • Professional Advisors are staff members who primarily serve as academic advisors. Professional advisors may be located in an advising center or academic department.
  • 教师 Advisors are faculty members who teach classes and serve as academic advisors, 通常是针对同一学术领域的学生.

校历

官方的国外博彩app 校历 提供与学年相关的日期和截止日期.

TIP: Sync important dates from the official calendar to your personal calendar.

学术目录

The 目录 contains the specific requirements necessary for all of the majors, 辅修课程和学位课程. You are held to these requirements and policies during your time at SU.

小贴士:对州立大学提供的专业或辅修课程感到好奇? 浏览目录 to learn more about what would be required if you changed your major, 或者加了第二个大调或小调.

院系或专业

国外博彩app由八个学院和学院组成, four of them serve primarily undergraduate students (Albers School of Business and Economics, 文理学院, 护理学院, 科学与工程学院.

Each of these 大学s and schools are then organized into academic departments or programs. These departments and program are devoted to a particular academic discipline. 例如, 国外博彩app有一个英语系, 一个数学系和一个国际研究项目.

Academic majors are housed within these departments and programs. 例如, an Accounting major would be housed in the Accounting Department within the Albers School of Business and Economics.

建议指出

Need to remember what you and your academic advisor spoke about the last time you met? Many advisors summarize key points of your advising conversations. Your advisor may also include notes about career goals you share with them. 大多数顾问会通过电子邮件与你分享建议笔记.

大学课程要求

Each 大学 or school at SU may have specific course requirements, 除了专业和核心要求之外. Your 项目评估 will specify if you are required to complete any 大学-specific classes.

核心类

The 大学的核心 Curriculum is the academic “center of gravity” of an SU undergraduate education. 核心课程帮助学生深入了解世界, 培养强大的智力技能, and prepare to be thoughtful and empowered leaders for a better world. The Core contains 12 classes in addition to a capstone course in your major. 更多信息请访问 大学的核心 网站.

Note: Honors, Humanities, and other programs have different Core requirements. 请务必查看您的课程评估以了解详细信息.

Credit

每门SU课程都有一定的学分. Credits represent the number of hours per week the class meets. 大多数本科课程是五(5)学分. All students must complete a minimum of 180 credit hours of approved coursework to earn a degree. 有些课程要求超过180学分.

放弃对. 退课

在季度添加/删除期间，如所示 校历, you can change your class schedule by adding or dropping courses on mySeattleU.

After the Add/Drop period, your only option is to withdraw from the course. Most students may withdraw online before the quarterly withdrawal deadline. International students, athletes, and students with a hold on their account must use the 提款申请表格 退出:退出一门课程. 你的Transcript上会显示你的成绩是"W". 这个分数不会影响你的平均绩点, but it may affect your status as a full-time student (might impact financial aid, 住房, 国际签证和/或运动员身份). If you are planning 退出:退出一门课程, talk to your academic advisor.

通识选修课程

这些课程不符合Core的要求, 大学, 主修或副修要求, but they do count towards the total number of credits required for graduation. 州立大学的大多数学位需要180学分才能毕业, but the courses you take to meet your degree requirements may not necessarily total 180. The credit difference between your total degree requirements and 180 credits are called general electives. General electives consist of courses numbered 1000-4999 and may be selected from any department, 只要你满足了这门课的Prerequisite.

小贴士:通选课是获得工作技能的好方法, 接触新的想法，或者参加一个有趣的课程.

Hold

Holds are placed onto a student record when a student needs to attend to something at the university. Holds may be placed by offices such as Student Financial Services, 学生主任, or the International Student Center for specific tasks that must be completed. Some holds may prevent a student from registering for classes until resolved. 如果你对hold有疑问，和你的导师谈谈. 

TIP: The 我的国外博彩app学生计划 system will alert you if you have any holds when you log in.

主要类

为学生专业指定的任何课程要求.
