Academic advising is an opportunity to speak one-on-one with a faculty member in the major you have declared. During this conversation, you will discuss classes important to your major, the Liberal Arts Core, and potential electives. Together, you will craft a class schedule that balances requirements with general courses of interest. To ensure the best schedule is created, please make sure you:

• Submit College Transcripts
  • If you wish to transfer in any college courses that you previously completed (Dual Enrollment, PSEO, etc.), please request an official transcript to be sent to admissions@usiouxfalls.edu once all final grades are posted.
  • If you are currently enrolled in any college courses, please send an unofficial transcript or a listing of all courses you have taken to admissions@usiouxfalls.edu. This will help the advisor prepare the best fall schedule. 
• Submit Advance Placement Transcripts 
  • USF accepts AP exams for credit for students that score either a 4 or 5. If you have any AP exam scores you wish to submit, please order a transcript to be sent directly to USF online here.
• Familiarize yourself with your major
  • Become familiar with the curriculum and requirements of your declared major online. 
• Familiarize yourself with the course delivery modes
  • Review the course delivery modes section of the USF Welcome Guide to better understand the different types of instruction offered at USF.
