Your USU checklist
5 things worth doing early
When you need help
5 things USU freshmen figure out too late
1 1 to 3 credits? You get the lowest
"In some classes, the amount of credit for which students register can be individually arranged. One student may take 2 credits, another student 3 credits, etc. Students are responsible to ensure they are registered for the desired number of credits. Online registration will always default to the lowest offered number of credits."
2 Excused absences stop at 20 percent
"Excused absences may not exceed 20% of the class meetings." "To be excused, students must notify their instructor in writing (acknowledged email message is acceptable) prior to the date of absence if such notification is feasible."
3 Class clashes with your beliefs? Ask
"A request for an alternative requirement must be made to the instructor in writing, and the student must deliver a copy of the request to the office of the department head." "The instructor must respond to any request for an alternative requirement within two school days of receiving it." "It is the student’s obligation to determine, before the last day to submit a petition for late course drop without penalty, when course requirements conflict with the student’s sincerely held core beliefs."
4 Two degrees? Both land the same term
"If pursuing dual bachelor's degrees, the degrees must be awarded in the same semester. For degrees not completed in the same semester, refer to the Second Bachelor's Degree policy." "In order to complete a dual major, students must complete all requirements for both of the two previously approved majors."
5 Record the lecture — Gus makes the notes, flashcards and quiz
Gus is an AI college companion built around your actual classes. Record a lecture and it writes the notes, pulls out the key topics, builds a flashcard deck, and makes a practice quiz from what was actually said. The flashcards come back on a spaced-review schedule, so the thing you missed shows up again right before you would have forgotten it. It is free to try.

Two straight 4.0 semesters earn the A Pin
"Maintain a 4.0 grade point average for two consecutive semesters." "Initiated in 1910, the “A” Pin Award is highly esteemed at Utah State University."
USU Catalog — A Pin AwardA first academic integrity violation means probation
"The penalty that the university will impose on a student for the first Academic Integrity violation is placement on academic integrity probation after the first offense."
