What are the University and LSB curriculum requirements?
Who delivers academic advising here at SCU?
What classes should I take in the Fall?
How do I plan for and register for classes?

6. LEAVEY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS
What I need for today
Computer/ Phone
Pencil
Blue Sheet
Requirement Check-list
Almost all students come into the LSB as undeclared LSB first year students. This is our preference as the curriculum is built to allow students to explore different areas of interest and then determine their major by the end of their Sophomore year. All students must declare at the end of their sophomore year. There is no constraint on which major a student can select in the LSB-all majors are available.
All students must declare their major by the end of their Sophomore year: faculty advisors, Career Center and learning about their goals/interests are some of the methods used to assist in this decision.

7. Staying informed is your responsibility
Prioritize review:
Office of the Registrar- Monica Augustin
Undergraduate Business Programs (UGBP)- Jo-Anne Shibles
Your Peer Advisor
Drahmann Academic Advising Center
You will receive lots, and lots, and lots of s. Truly, I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed when you open you box in the morning. But it’s up to you to make sure that you manage reading s appropriately. The university offices will send you notices via your SCU gmail account. When our office, or the Office of the Registrar, or the Bursars office, etc., send an to that account, you are considered officially notified. So, it’s extremely important that you read your s so that you can stay appropriately informed.

8. What does the Curriculum
Look LIKE?
University
Business
School
Major
What you’ll see on the requirements checklist is that required courses are grouped by
University core – left side
Business school core – right side
Major – middle
You may also complete courses for a 2nd major, or a minor, or elective courses that don’t meet specific requirements, but do round out your education.

12. Calculus CRE & placement (ALEKS) Mary Long – mlong@scu.edu
CRE not required – AP credit, or transfer credit for MATH 9, 11 or 30
If you haven’t received AP credit, you should have taken the calculus readiness exam and received a notice from the math department about which calculus course you should enroll in pre-calculus or calculus.
If you haven’t received AP credit or taken the CRE, plan to take the CRE prior to winter registration and enroll in math for winter quarter.
CRE taken – You’ve received a notice about placement
CRE not taken – You must take it prior to enrolling in calculus for winter quarter

14. Calculus and AP AP Exam Score Earns SCU Credit For Notes Calculus AB
MATH 11
Enroll in MATH 12
Calculus BC 3
MATH 11 & 12
Business calculus requirement fulfilled.
I’ve pulled the Math information from the Advanced Placement chart. Please note that if you receive credit for MATH 11 only, you may go on to take either MATH 12 or MATH 31. However, the math department will tell you that you’re better off taking MATH 12 if you’ve receive AP credit for MATH 11.

15. Calculus
Either way, the math department wants us to remind you that waiting to take math is a bad strategy.
Particularly if you struggle with math, it’s important to take it early in order to build on the foundations you’ve already created. The farther you get from those foundations, the tougher it will be. Plus, if you wait too long you could find yourself faced with an issue when it’s time to graduate and you’re having trouble passing math.

16. 2nd Language For Business 2nd course/1st year of college level
The 2nd language requirement for business students is proficiency to the 2nd course in the first year of college level language.
Like math, the folks in the modern languages department would remind you not to wait too long to start your 2nd language.
First, you may be building on a foundation you’ve already started.
Second, who’s planning to study abroad? You should know that it’s a competitive process. While not all programs require that you have 2nd language experience, you do have to explain your academic goals in the application process and already having a start in that 2nd language can’t hurt.
The first course in a language sequence
is only offered in the fall

17. Religion, Theology & Culture
RSOC, TESP, SCTR
RTC 1 (numbered 1-19)
