About CSE Academic Advising

What is a college academic advisor?

All students are assigned a college academic advisor during their undergraduate experience. If you have been admitted to the University Honors Program (UHP), you will be assigned a UHP academic advisor in addition to your college advisor.

Your college academic advisor is a professional staff member who serves as your primary point-of-contact for academic planning and questions. College academic advisors provide resources for academic success, personal wellbeing, and goal setting. You can learn more about academic advising on the CSE Academic Advising webpage. Although your college academic advisor will be available to you throughout your undergraduate career, they will primarily work with you prior to admission to your major (we call this “pre-major” advising).

More information:

What is a departmental advisor?

Once admitted to your major, you will work more closely with a professional staff member and/or faculty member within your major department—known as a departmental or major advisor—for academic planning (we call this “upper division” advising). You can learn more on the CSE Academic Advising webpage.

How do I find out who is my college academic advisor, honors advisor (if appicable), or departmental advisor?

Your advisor’s name(s) and contact information is listed on MyU, under the Academics tab.

More info: MyU website

How do I request a new college academic advisor?

You may request a new college academic advisor by emailing CSEStudent@umn.edu.

How do I schedule an academic advising appointment?

If you have not yet been admitted to your major, you are encouraged to use the online scheduling tool first to schedule an appointment with your college academic advisor. You may also contact the front desk of the CSE Academic Advising and Career Center (612-624-2890), located in Lind Hall, Room 105, to schedule an appointment. More information can be found about appointment scheduling on the CSE Academic Advising webpage.

Honors students should check their honor's academic advisor's availability, or call 612-624-5522 to schedule an appointment to discuss questions or concerns related to honors requirements

If you have been admitted to your major, you may visit, email, or call the academic department’s main office to determine how to schedule an appointment. That location and contact information can be found on the bottom of the major’s Four-Year Plan, or on the department’s website.

More info:

What is drop-in academic advising?

Drop-ins are 5- to 10-minute meetings with an on-duty college academic advisor for addressing a wide range of “quick” questions. Topics often include how to use your One-Time-Only Late Withdrawal, concerns about a current class, referrals to campus resources and programs, liberal education requirements, and college or University academic policies. More information about drop-ins can be found on the CSE Academic Advising webpage.

Registration, academic planning, and academic policies

How do I find out my registration time?

You can find this information by logging into MyU and selecting the Academics tab. Click on the Registration link on the top of the landing page. This will take you to your assigned time for registration. Note: this information is not available until a few weeks before the registration queue begins. You may find a general registration timeline on One Stop.

More information:

What does it mean to have a "hold" on my record, and how do I have it removed?

A hold prevents you from making changes to your record until you complete an action. There are many types of holds you may encounter, and they often affect registration. How you get a hold removed depends on what office has placed it. Holds are visible on MyU in the top right corner. One Stop offers a guide to viewing and resolving holds. Please be mindful of the “effective term” for the hold, as this will determine your eligibility to register. The following holds are specific to academic advising:

  • College Advisor Approval Hold (OA): To have this hold removed, you must attend a 30-minute appointment with your college academic advisor.
  • College Advisor Approval Hold (OA1, OA2, or OA3): To have this hold removed, you must attend a Group Registration Workshop. Email invitations are sent out in the early fall with directions on how to sign-up.
  • Department Stamp Approval (DS): If you have been admitted to your major, you may have this hold on your record. To have this hold removed, you should contact your academic department directly for next steps.
  • Major Declaration Hold (MDR): To have this hold removed, you must be admitted to a major in CSE or transfer to another college at the University of Minnesota. If admission to your major is not possible, you should meet with your college academic advisor to discuss this hold and your plan.

More information:

A course I need is full. What should I do?

All academic departments handle course access differently. More information on how to request access to a full/closed course is found in the CSE Advising blog.
 

How do I add/swap/drop a class?

One Stop offers several How-To Guides on how to add, drop, and swap a class. When considering changes to your registration, it is important to be mindful of deadlines. Please use the swap function when making updates to your registration.

More information:

Where can I find the deadlines for adding or dropping a course?

One Stop maintains a cancel, add, and refund deadlines webpage to provide you with this information.

More information:

Can I withdraw from a course after the semester is over?

You are not permitted to retroactively withdraw from courses for which you have earned grades. There are extenuating circumstances that could warrant an Academic Policy Petition for a retroactive withdrawal; however, you should consult with your college academic advisor to discuss your individual circumstances. Please review the CSE petitioning for exemptions guidelines webpage on withdrawing from courses for additional information, and review these guidelines for information to include with your petition.

More information:

What is my One-Time-Only Late Withdrawal, and how do I use it?

All students are offered a One-Time-Only Late Withdrawal (OTOLW) to use once during their undergraduate academic career, which allows them to withdraw from one class past the 10th week of the semester, but prior to the last day of class. You can find more information about the OTOLW and how to use it on the course withdrawals page.

More information:

How do I withdraw from the University?

Please visit the One Stop website for a checklist on how to withdraw from the University of Minnesota.

More information:

How do I take a leave of absence from the University?

Please visit the One Stop website for a checklist on how to file for a leave of absence from the University of Minnesota.

More information:

What is a liberal education course?

A liberal education (or “lib ed”) course is a course that may or may not be in your major field of study that challenges you to look at the world in new ways, learn new things, and think critically. Typically, lib ed courses will be in academic areas other than your major.

More information:

What is a "double-dipper" course?

A “double-dipper” is a course that fulfills more than one liberal education requirement. Specifically, this term often refers to a course that fulfills one core and one theme requirement; it may also include a Writing Intensive component (course numbers ending in “W” or “V”).

More information:

Where can I find courses that fulfill liberal education requirements?

Liberal education courses can be found multiple ways:
1) Using the Class Search tool on MyU and selecting “UMNTC Liberal Education” in the Course Attributes menu;
2) On Schedule Builder;
3) On One Stop’s website; or
4) Asking peers for recommendations of lib ed courses they have taken.

More information:

What is a technical elective?

A technical elective is a course specific to your major that you must take to satisfy degree requirements. In some majors, there are many options to choose from, as each academic department decides what classes will fulfill the technical elective requirement for their major(s). Therefore, it is important to check with your departmental advisor when choosing technical electives to select courses appropriate for your goals.

More information:

How do I keep track of my academic progress?

You should use your APAS report (found on MyU) and your Four-Year Plan, along with guidance from your college and departmental advisors, to monitor your academic progress.

More information:

What is my technical GPA versus my cumulative GPA, and how are they different?

Your CSE technical GPA is your grade point average of all technical courses (i.e. chemistry, physics, math, etc.) you have taken at the University of Minnesota–Twin Cities campus. It is the GPA that is considered when you apply for admission to your major in CSE.

Your cumulative GPA is your grade point average of all courses you have taken within the University of Minnesota system (i.e. Crookston, Duluth, Morris, Twin Cities, Rochester).

More information:

What is the University's policy on repeating courses?

You have the ability to repeat a course once during your time at the University of Minnesota. Petitions to take a class for a third time are rarely approved, and petitions to take a class for a fourth time will not be considered. You can read the student guidelines for repeating a course, as well as the Grading and Transcripts policy for more information.

More information:

How does repeating a course impact my technical GPA?

If you repeat a technical course, all attempts will be calculated into your technical GPA. It is not recommended that you repeat a class you have successfully completed (grade of C- or better).

More information:

How does repeating a course impact my cumulative GPA?

When repeating a course, only your most recent attempt will be calculated into your cumulative GPA, even if that grade is lower than what you previously earned (however, both grades will appear on your transcript). It is not recommended that you repeat a class you have successfully completed (grade of C- or better). Please review the Grading and Transcripts policy for more information.

More information:

How does transfer coursework affect my technical and cumulative GPA?

Courses taken at other institutions will have no impact on your UMN GPAs (except for courses taken at U of M system campuses, which will impact only your cumulative GPA). Transfer students who have never taken U of M courses will not have a cumulative or technical GPA until after they have completed their first semester at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities campus.

Major exploration and admission

How can I learn more about the majors in CSE?

There is a wide variety of resources in the college and on campus to help you explore majors. Conversations with your college academic advisor and a CSE career counselor can be most beneficial. Getting involved in student groups and other activities on campus are also great options. The major and career exploration resource from the CSE Career Center can be a helpful tool to assist you in starting your exploration.

More information:

When do I apply to my major?

Students typically apply to a major during the fall of their sophomore year. There are occasionally exceptions to this timeline, so it is important to work with your college academic advisor to ensure you are making progress towards this milestone. Students must meet technical GPA requirements and have all required courses successfully completed by the end of the semester during which they are applying for admission to their major. Courses required for admission to the major are indicated with a diamond on the Four-Year Plan. You can learn more about the application process and timelines at the Application to the Major website.

More information:

What if I am not admitted to my major?

If you are not admitted to your first choice major, or have concerns about your admissibility, it is important that you schedule an appointment with your college academic advisor to discuss developing a parallel plan. If you continue to take courses towards a major to which you will not be admitted, you will have a Major Declaration Required (MDR) hold placed on your record. This hold will prevent you from all future registration until you have developed a new plan for moving forward. More information can be found at the Application to the Major website.

More information:

Orientation

What is orientation?

Orientation is a mandatory experience for all incoming students. Your orientation format, length, and programming will differ based on whether you are a freshman or transfer student. You can learn more about freshman and transfer orientation by visiting the office of Orientation and Transition Experiences (OTE) website. Inter-College Transfer students (those transferring from another college at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities) will complete an online orientation, which may be accessed through the New Student Checklist.

More information:

How do I sign up for orientation?

Beginning in early April, any student who has paid their confirmation fee will have access to the New Student Checklist. Please note: access to the checklist may take 2–3 business days after your confirmation fee is received by the University. Log in to the checklist using your Internet ID, and you will be able to complete the “Tell Us About Yourself” survey, select an orientation date (If required), and begin placement testing.

More information:

Will AP or IB credits help me graduate faster?

CSE curriculum is designed as a four-year experience. While AP and IB credit can certainly free up some space in your schedule, it does not guarantee a reduced time to completion given the sequential nature of science and engineering majors.

How do I know what AP or IB courses will satisfy degree requirements?

The Office of Admissions maintains pages that show you what you can expect for credit from your AP or IB courses.

More information:

Where do I send my AP or IB scores, or transcripts for PSEO or CIS coursework?

The Office of Admissions processes and applies AP, IB, Post-Secondary Enrollment Option (PSEO), College in the Schools (CIS), and other transfer coursework to your University of Minnesota record. Please visit their webpage for information on how to submit transcripts and test scores.

More information:

How do I know if my AP and/or IB credit has been received by the University?

Once your scores have been received, the Office of Admissions will evaluate your reports and post the credit to your academic record. The easiest way to check if scores have been recorded is to review your APAS report on MyU. It may take several weeks for this process to be completed; it is okay to come to orientation before your scores have been posted to your academic record. When you meet with your college academic advisor, you will discuss how you think you did and use your best judgment to register for classes. Once you receive your scores, you can adjust your schedule, if needed.

More information

Can I repeat a course for which I earned AP or IB credit?

Choosing to utilize AP or IB scores to satisfy degree requirements is your personal choice. If you feel unsure about moving into more advanced coursework, it may make more sense to enroll in the course. This is especially true for math, chemistry, and physics, as they are the foundation for CSE majors. It is important to know that you cannot earn duplicate credit for a course. If you choose to retake a course and do not earn a satisfactory grade, you may not retroactively use your AP or IB credit to satisfy a course requirement. Your college academic advisor will work with you during orientation to discuss your options.

Who needs to take the placement exams and learning modules for placement?

All incoming CSE first-year students must take the placement exams and learning modules for placement, including those who expect pre-college credit (AP or IB), or those who have earned college credit. It is important to complete these exams before attending orientation so you can be placed in appropriate courses.

How do I complete the placement exams and learning modules for placement?

You can access these through the New Student Checklist. The tests are online and timed.

More information:

What exams do I need to take?

All incoming CSE first-year students must take the calculus placement exam and chemistry learning modules for placement. These will be assigned to you on your New Student Checklist.

More information:

Why do I need to take placement tests and learning modules for placement?

The exams are designed to assess your readiness for the rigor of coursework at the University of Minnesota. Knowing where you stand will inform your registration choices.

What if I already have AP, IB, or college credit for math or chemistry? Will I lose that credit for math or chemistry? Will I lost that credit if I place lower?

Taking the placement tests will not negate the credit you have already earned for AP, IB, or earned college credit (PSEO/CIS). However, if you place lower than what would be expected based on your previous coursework, it could be an indicator that you are not prepared to move forward in the course sequence(s). Making this determination will involve having a conversation with your college academic advisor at orientation.

What else should I know about the placement tests and learning modules for placement?

The chemistry learning modules for placement begin with an initial assessment, which may only be taken once. A score of 80% or higher on this initial assessment will allow you to register for CHEM 1061/1065 (the first chemistry course in the freshman sequence) on your orientation date. However, we strongly recommend that you follow through with additional learning modules and assessments until you reach 100% prior to the semester beginning.

In order to complete the math placement exam and chemistry learning modules for placement, it is important that you submit your scores. For chemistry, click the "accept" button. For the math placement test, click the "submit" button. It may take a while for scores to be available on your checklist.

Please note: the chemistry learning modules for placement will allow you to log in after you complete the initial assessment in order to continue working in the learning modules.

The Office of Undergraduate Education offers additional information on the math placement exam and chemistry learning modules for placement. It is important that you read it prior to taking the exams:

More information:

I am interested in continuing with a second language. Do I need to take a placement test?

Yes, you should take a placement test to determine where you will start in the curriculum. You can learn more about placement testing for second languages by visiting the Language Testing Program website. You can also learn language-specific information about the different placement tests offered at the U.

What is the difference between a major, a minor, and a degree?

A  major is the topical area where you do the majority of your academic work, an area of specialization in which you build a breadth and depth of knowledge through coursework and experiences.

A minor is the culmination of a small set of courses in which you have gained a lesser knowledge base than a major.

A degree is the sum of your courses, including both major and liberal education requirements. When you have successfully completed the requirements of your program, you will receive your degree (as an undergraduate at the University of Minnesota, you will receive a Bachelor’s degree in your major).

How do I add additional degrees, a major or minors?

To add additional majors, minors, or degrees, first speak with your college academic advisor to discuss your plans. Your college academic advisor can then assist you in making those plans, or refer you to the appropriate office.

More information on changing or adding majors or minors can be found on the One Stop website.

Probation and suspension

What are academic probation and suspension?

If your term or cumulative GPA—or both, if it is your first semester at the U of M—fall below a 2.0, you will be on academic probation the following semester. Probation is an opportunity for you to connect with your college academic advisor (and someone in your department if you have been admitted to your major) to discuss barriers to your success and develop a plan to overcome those barriers.

If after your probation semester your term and cumulative GPAs are below a 2.0—or if you did not meet the terms of your probation contract as stipulated by your department (for students admitted to their major)—you will be suspended from the University. You will be unable to take classes at the U of M for at least one full academic year.

More information:

What do I do if I am on academic probation?

If you are on academic probation, you must meet with your college academic advisor (and someone in your department, if you have been admitted to your major) by the seventh week of the semester. You must complete the Academic Probation Contract and Self-Assessment worksheet prior to these meetings—you will discuss the self-assessment with your advisor(s) and develop a plan for overcoming barriers to success. Please review CSE’s Academic Probation and Suspension webpage for more information.

More information:

What do I do if I am suspended?

If you are suspended, you will be unable to take classes at the U of M for at least one full academic year. During that time, you are encouraged to meet with your college academic advisor to discuss a plan for successfully returning to the University. Please read CSE's Academic Probation and Suspension webpage for more information.

More information:

Can I appeal academic probation or suspension?

Academic probation is determined by your cumilative and term GPAs, so there is no opportunity to appeal. However, if your grades changed after probation review or you experienced extenuating cicumstances that warrant a withdrawal from courses, you should contact your college academic advisor.

You may appeal your suspension if you faced extenuating circumstances that warrant an exemption from the suspension policy. Please consult with your college academic advisor before submitting your appeal, and review the guidelines for petition for exemptions.

More information:

When am I eligible to return to the University after suspension, and what is the process?

You are eligible to return to the University after one full academic year. You will need to complete the Petition for Reinstatement After Suspension and provide all requested information listed on the guidelines for petitioning for exemptions. Please read CSE's Academic Probation and Suspension webpage for more information.
