Transitioning to Upper Division Studies

•Upper division classes, in general, require more self-discipline and initiative.

•There may be fewer “student supports” such as study guides or review sessions.

•In upper division courses students engage in more integrative thinking and produce work that reflects their own synthesis of the materials learned in and out of class.

Tips for Success

•Seek consultations with your instructors during office hours. Utilize all resources available!

•If you decide to drop a class, be sure that you follow the University procedures and verify (by checking your TITAN portal) that you are no longer in the class.

•Be aware of important deadlines…the University closes the window for dropping within the first 2 weeks of the semester.
