As part of USD's general education curriculum, all freshmen students are assigned to a preceptorial class during their first semester. The professor, known as a "Preceptor," serves as the student's academic advisor and can assist in answering questions about academic planning. Once a student declares a major, he/she will be assigned an advisor in the department of the chosen major.

In addition, as a student-athlete, you may also meet with Sarabeth Pollock (all sports except Football and Rowing) or Keddy Saunders (Football and Rowing) to discuss academic plans. It is your responsibility to meet with Sarabeth or Keddy to ensure that you are keeping up with NCAA eligibility requirements. Please review your Student-Athlete Handbook for further information on your academic eligibility requirements.
