The Core curriculum is at
the heart of an
undergraduate degree. It
was created by the faculty
to give you a strong liberal
arts foundation in your
education. All students
must complete the Core
curriculum, which is
comprised of 44 credits or
eleven courses (you will
take one course from each
area).
In addition to the
completion of 44 credits to
fulfill the core, you must
also fulfill two other
requirements that carry no
credit value on their own,
but can be attached to any
one of the CORE areas
Cultural Diversity
Service Learning

listed. These are cultural
diversity and service
learning.
USF is a premiere Jesuit
Catholic and urban
University with a global
perspective. By taking
cultural diversity and
service learning courses,
we aim to educate students
to be leaders who will
fashion a more humane and
just world.
Students can fulfill these
requirements by selecting
from a variety of courses
that are spread throughout
the Core, your major, or
electives.

All students need to complete the Core A2
Rhetoric and Composition requirement at
USF.
shown how to do this in the chapter called
“How to View Your Placement Scores.”
Your placement score will determine what
further classes you need to take, or not,
depending on what course you’ve been
placed into. For e.g.: if you placed into RHET
110, you must also take RHET 120 to
complete the Core A2 requirement (Table 1).
Freshman: To complete this requirement
you’ll be taking 1–3 courses, depending on
your SAT or ACT scores. To find out which
classes you need to take, you need to view

Core A2
Transfers
All students need to complete the Core A2 Rhetoric
and Composition requirement at USF, even if you
are a transfer student.
If you have not fulfilled this qualification, please
contact: rhetoricandlanguage@usfca.edu
Some major departments have developed
specialized writing courses that also fulfill this
requirement. So, if you’re a transfer student and
passed a composition course with a grade of C- or
better, check Table 2 to see what alternate options
may be available to you.
Transfer students who have successfully
completed a composition course at another
institution with a grade of C- or better may take
RHET 250 or 295 (or any of the classes in Table 2
below). Your writing requirement is fulfilled upon
successful completion of this course.

Transfer Students
A transfer student has completed
classes at another institution
prior to attending USF. You may
have completed some of your
core and major requirements
already. It is important for you to
review your transfer credit, both
on the degree evaluation page on
USFconnect, and with an
academic advisor to avoid
repeating courses.
If you are currently enrolled in
another institution, please
remember that these courses
may not yet have been accepted
by USF, and won’t appear on your
degree evaluation page. Make
sure that you send up-to-date
transcripts once your grades
have been posted. If you’re not
sure what classes to register for,
this tutorial will provide you with
suggestions on the type of
classes you should look for. If you
are not sure if you have
completed a particular class,
avoid taking the class until you
have consulted with an academic
advisor. We will be reviewing
your schedule after you register.
If necessary, we will recommend
some course adjustments.

RHETORIC & COMPOSITION
COURSE
We recommend that you take a
Composition course during your
first semester. If you have
transferred and passed, with a
minimum grade of C- a
composition course at another
institution, you may register for
Rhetoric and Composition 250 or
295. If you haven’t taken any prior
writing and composition courses,
contact the rhetoric and
composition office:
rhetoricandlanguage@usfca.edu
A majority of transfer students
register for Rhetoric and
Composition 250 or 295.
However, there are some
departments that have created
specialized writing courses.
Check the table on the next page
to see if your major has an
alternate course. If you
previously completed a bachelors
degree you do not need to enroll
in Rhetoric and Composition
250 or 295.
WHAT CLASSES
SHOULD YOU TAKE?
1 - 2 MAJOR COURSES
You should download a major
requirement checklist from the
Webtrack homepage.
CORE COURSE
You can register for a Core
Area D course in either
Philosophy, Theology and
Religious Studies or Ethics. This is
particularly a good
option for students transferring
from other schools because most
of them haven’t taken these
courses before. Or, you
can select a course from many of
the Core Areas that we offer.
21
CONTINUED
FOREIGN LANGUAGE
(Arts and Sciences &
International Business
majors only)
We recommend that you begin
or continue a foreign language
class if you haven’t fulfilled it
already. If you are continuing
a language and the language
is still fresh in your mind, this
is a wise choice. Take a
language placement test to
make sure that you register
for a course at the level of
your competence.
EXTRACURRICULAR
COURSES (optional)
There are many 1-2 credit
courses that you might like to
consider: a college success
course; a physical activity
course; a computer science
course; you can get involved
in a play production; or you
can join a choir or vocal
group.

Rules and Regulations
DROPPING CLASSES
To receive a tuition refund, you
must drop a class by the Last
Day to Drop. Students who
absent themselves from class,
or just stop going, or tell their
instructor that they are
dropping the course without
filing the required drop form or
dropping online will receive an
“F” for the course. Make sure
you’re using the proper
procedures for dropping a
class.
CLASS ATTENDANCE &
INCOMPLETE GRADES
USF expects students to attend all
classroom and lab exercises. Any
absences may affect final grades. Be
sure to read the course syllabi
carefully to understand all of your
instructor’s expectations. If, for
some reason, you are given an “I,” or
an Incomplete grade, you must make
sure to complete all of the work for
the course in a timely manner;
otherwise the Incomplete grade
converts to an “F” by the close of the
following semester.
CREDIT HOUR LIMITATIONS
Full-time students take about 16
credits, that’s 4 classes at 4 credits
each per semester. Anything over 18
credits is not allowed without
special permission and typically a
GPA of 3.5. Also, a per-credit charge
is assessed for each credit
exceeding 18. Part-time students
take fewer than 12 credits. Be
careful if you change from full-time
to part-time status because it may
affect your educational grants and
loans.
25
Rules and Regulations
CONTINUED
PASS/FAIL OPTION
The last day to change to,
or from, the Pass/Fail or
Audit option is on the Last

grade option is also not
available for core
courses, language
courses, or courses
required for your major.
FINAL EXAMS
The dates and times for
final exams are scheduled
well in advance and cannot
be changed. You can find
the final exam schedule by
clicking on the link on the
Webtrack homepage.
DEAN’S HONOR ROLL
If you’re a full-time
student and maintain a
GPA of 3.5 or higher, you’ll
be placed on the Dean’s
Honor Roll.
ACADEMIC PROBATION
If you drop below a 2.0 GPA
in any semester, or earn less
than a 2.0 cumulative GPA in
your major overall, you’ll be
placed on academic
probation.
RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT
44 credits of your coursework
must be taken in-residence at
USF. In order to take a class at
another institution you must
receive permission from the
Dean. Courses required for the
core and the major must be
taken at USF.
26
DIRECTED STUDY
The privilege of enrolling in a
directed study or research is
limited to those students with
a 3.0 or higher GPA, and only
one such course per semester
is allowed. Normally, first
semester USF students are
ineligible.

As a member of the University of San Francisco Community
I pledge to demonstrate
The Core Values of the University

Academic Integrity and Expectations
Faculty expect students to come
prepared for all advising
sessions. The best way to do
this is to bring a draft schedule
for your following semester
courses.
You should also be familiar with
the academic requirements for
your major and college.
You can find out who your
advisor is, and when you can
register through myUSF. Take
note, all freshman and transfer
students will not be assigned an
advisor before you arrive on
campus.
For your first semester at USF
you will register for your
courses through the on-line
advising and registration
program called Webtrack. After
you register, faculty will check
the classes you selected and if
necessary, they will suggest
course adjustments. You will
meet everyone when you arrive
on campus and attend the
‘Orientation to Your Major’
workshops during
Orientation week.
An advisor will be assigned to
you during your first semester
at USF.
