“Advising is Teaching” according to the National Academic Advising Association (NACADA)

If an advisor is teaching, then an advisee is learning.

As in any other type of learning, the student has the responsibility of knowing the expected learning outcomes and how to demonstrate their achievement.

Utilize the following Academic Advising Syllabus to understand your expected learning outcomes.

WHAT IS ADVISING?

Academic advising at Santa Clara University is a cooperative effort between students, faculty, and staff which encourages students to master advising resources for making sound programmatic decisions as intentional learners, to explore educational and career opportunities, and to develop productive relationships with faculty and university advisors who are dedicated to educating leaders for a just and humane world.

As a result of academic advising, students should be able to show mastery of advising resources for programmatic decision-making and academic support and develop a productive relationship with their faculty and/or a university advisor while exploring educational and career opportunities.

You must be enrolled in 12 units to be considered a full-time student.

o Sample schedule unit combinations:

Check prerequisites and verify that courses meet requirements before enrolling in classes.

Plan to take a variety of courses in both the university core, business core and your major

each quarter. As a freshman or sophomore you will rarely be enrolled in more than two

business courses.

If a class you want to enroll in is full during the registration period.

o Make sure you enroll in a full schedule during your registration appointment. Don’t

assume you’ll be able to fill your schedule during the first week of classes.

If you make a successful bid to enroll in a class that was full, you can swap classes

during the first week of classes.

o For courses offered in the business school - - If you are trying to add a full class that is offered

in ACTG, ECON, FNCE, MGMT, MKTG, or OMIS.

Attend the first class session.

Do not contact the professor or the department admin.

Sign up on a Course Enrollment Request form.

Spaces will be assigned by criteria agreed upon by the department and UGBP.

Primarily, graduation petition status, number of units completed, and/or major

You will be notified about the status of your request prior to the 2nd class meeting.

o For information about adding full classes offered by departments in A&S or

Engineering, contact the individual departments.

Don’t panic – you won’t fall behind the expected four-year graduation just because you can’t

get into a class that is full. If you think you might, visit an LSB Peer Advisor who can show you

how to complete a 4-year course plan. Once you have a course plan, you’ll usually find you

have more time than you think to complete a particular course.

BUSN 70 – Fall Freshman Year

Most business students take the MATH 30/31 sequence. Business students or Economics majors desiring to take mathematics beyond the two required courses of calculus should take MATH 11/12 instead in order to satisfy the prerequisites to more advanced mathematics courses.

ECON 1 also satisfies social science requirement in university core.

OMIS 15 (2 units) MGMT 6 or PHIL 6 (also satisfies ethics requirement in university core) OMIS 34 (also satisfies science, technology and society requirement in university core)

o Students who may be considering an Accounting major or Management Information Systems (MIS) major or minor should speak to an advisor before taking this class.

2nd Language o Course completion or proficiency to first-year, second course (e.g. SPAN 2)

Lab Science Diversity Arts

You will not complete ALL of the courses listed above in the freshman year. These are simply suggested courses.

By the end of spring quarter, freshman year, you should have completed a minimum of 44-46 units.

A score of 4 or 5 in AP statistics yields SCU credit in MATH 8 or OMIS 40. o If you receive AP credit for OMIS 40 you must complete OMIS 15 before you enroll in OMIS 41 or

ECON 41/42 (ECON majors only).

You must declare a major no later than the spring quarter of your sophomore year. Please utilize resources (Faculty Advisor, Career Center, Department Chairs) to help you begin to make this decision.

The School of Business strictly enforces prerequisites. It is your responsibility to plan your schedule accordingly.
