Important Notes
- Core Curriculum
-
- Learning Objectives: Students, prior to requesting a course approval to satisfy a Core Requirement you should consult the Undergraduate Core Curriculum Guide at http://www.scu.edu/provost/ugst/core2009/2009-Core-Curriculum-Guide.cfm and confirm that the study abroad course meets the learning objections of the Core requirement being requested.
- Religious Studies: Only the 2nd of the three RTC Core requirements can be satisfied with a course completed through study abroad. Students admitted as freshmen must complete the three RTC courses in sequence, and RTC 3 only counts for the Core after the student has completed 88 units. Transfer students who matriculate with 44 or more units complete any two RTC requirements in any order.
- Diversity:The SCU Core Diversity requirement deals with US Domestic multiculturalism. Courses abroad that deal with global diversity, rather that US domestic multiculturalism, do not meet the SCU Core Diversity requirement.
- Majors and Minors
-
- The Communication Department will accept no more that two courses taken abroad for the major. Approved courses count as COMM electives. Lower division required COMM courses (COMM 1, 2, 12, 20, 30 or 40), COMM List A (theory), List B (media production), method courses (COMM 110, 111), and thesis/capstone (COMM 196, 197) cannot be taken abroad.

- MGMT 80 students may request credit for the equivalent of MGMT 80 for courses taken abroad, however, students should note that most study abroad courses equivalent to MGMT 80 do not satisfy the Cultures & Ideas 3 requirement.
- Studio Art or Art History courses taken during a term of study abroad normally may be applied to no more than half of the requirements for a major or minor in Studio Art or Art History.
- Other: If you have questions regarding the requirements for your major or minor. Please contact your advisor or department for assistance.
The database is administered by Office of the Registrar. For information about the database or the courses pre-approved for Core 2008 and earlier, contact Melinda Kong (makong@scu.edu).
