greetings from the associate dean
Welcome To Chapel Hill!Whether you are a first-year student or a transfer student, this is a very exciting time for you. You are about to embark on a unique journey of learning, discovery and engagement. Here at Carolina, faculty, staff and other students are ready to share with you the opportunities that will shape your college life and your future.
The Academic Advising Program and its advisors have years of experience and a wealth of knowledge to help you make the most of your time at UNC-CH. Carolina’s liberal arts curriculum encourages you to explore our global society through science, history, literature, the arts and other disciplines. Your passion for knowledge led you to Chapel Hill; now, let that passion lead you in exploring the dozens of majors and minors available to you.
Our goal in Advising is to empower students to be confident, connected and curious. Our advisors will partner with you to create a unique academic plan that moves you toward graduation and beyond. With their support, you can be confident in your abilities and goals. Advising will connect you with an abundance of resources on campus, from academic enrichment to career planning. Be curious and explore Carolina by taking a course with award-winning professors, getting involved in co-curricular activities such as study abroad, research, and internships and engaging in any number of student organizations that will round out your academic life.
The Academic Advising Program has prepared this Academic Advising Guide for new first-year and transfer students as a companion to the information you can find in your Advising Sakai “course.” The 2014–2015 Academic Advising Guide includes five parts:
Part I covers Graduation Requirements: UNC-Chapel Hill Curriculum, General Education Requirements, Majors and Minors. All first-year and transfer students should review these sections carefully to ensure understanding of General Education Requirements, Major Requirements, and beginning courses for majors.
Part II covers course placement for English, foreign language and math, as well as, credits for standardized tests.
Part III is the First-Year Student Registration Information: All new first-year students should review this section for information related to preparing for Fall course planning and registration.
Part IV lists courses offered in Fall 2014 that are appropriate for first-year students. Students should use these lists, as well as, the First-Year Seminars listings (fys.unc.edu) to create their Fall schedule.
Part V is the Transfer Student Advising Guide: All new transfer students should review this section for insight on academic advising at Carolina, transfer credit evaluation information, and strategies to assist with Fall course registration.
Be sure to read each of the sections pertaining to you. Utilize the information to help you navigate the Carolina Curriculum, registration process, and academic expectations. Refer back to this information during the academic year and take advantage of the many resources outlined in the New Student Guide to Carolina to help you make the most of your time at UNC-CH.
We hope you will visit us soon in the Steele Building. Your academic advisor will partner with you to enhance your academic success and to help you make the most of this incredible opportunity. I wish you the very best as you take the next step in your future.

academic advising checklist
After OrIentAtIOn (fIrst-yeAr students Only)
Check your UNC email, Sakai, and this Guide for your registration dates and tips.
Before your registration window opens, fill your ConnectCarolina shopping cart with courses that you and your academic advisor discussed at Orientation.
Check that you have no holds that may prevent you from registering on-time. If you do, click on them to see how to get them lifted.
When your designated registration window opens, log-on to connectcarolina.unc.edu to enroll in your courses. (Be sure to click Enroll and Finish Enrolling to complete the process.)
Before your registration window closes be sure you are enrolled in at least 12 academic hours—preferably 15–17 hours.
Go to advising.unc.edu/newstudents for assistance during course registration.
After regIstrAtIOn
Return to Sakai and check for additional important information about your first year at UNC-Chapel Hill: student success standards (eligibility), resources, academic assistance, etc.
Beginning Thursday, August 7 at 11:00AM EDT, first-year students who attended June or July Orientation sessions may adjust their schedules as necessary at connectcarolina.unc.edu. (Transfer students may adjust their schedules at any time during the summer.)
Review the on-campus placement exam schedule on page 61 and sign-up as appropriate.
If you waitlisted a course, review your schedule regularly and especially on August 7. If you are still not in the course, check your position on the waitlist and consider your options. Though you may not add your name to any waitlist after August 7, ConnectCarolina will continue to move waitlisted students to enrollment if seats become available.
No later than the first day of classes, make sure you are enrolled in a minimum of 12 academic hours.
If you have not already done so, send your AP/SAT/IB/SAT Subject scores and official transcripts for other colleges attended to the Office of Admissions. (Transfer students, be sure final transcripts that include any summer courses you took and any degrees awarded are sent to Admissions.)
Review the Academic Calendar located on the back inside cover of the New Student Guide to Carolina for important dates and deadlines. Official University calendars can be found at registrar.unc.edu/academic-calendar.
Check the final examination schedule posted at registrar.unc.edu/academic-calendar for your Fall classes. Plan any winter travel after your last exam.
Transfer students: as appropriate submit your request for
transfer credit re-evaluation at admissions.unc.edu/Apply/Transfer_students/Tr_eval_Currentstdnts.html and/or
course petition for General Education Requirements at unc.edu/depts/uc/students/CoursePetition.html (see pages 83).

Majors at Carolina
degrees OfferedUNC-CH offers many majors and minors in the College of Arts & Sciences and Professional Schools. Within the College of Arts & Sciences, majors and minors are broken down into four divisions: Fine Arts, Humanities, Natural Sciences & Mathematics, and Social & Behavioral Sciences.
Carolina awards the following undergraduate degrees:
Bachelor of Arts (BA)
Bachelor of Science (BS)
Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA)
Bachelor of Music (BM)
Differences in Degrees Both the Bachelor of Science (BS) and Bachelor of
Arts (BA) degrees are awarded in many disciplines.
BS degrees require more math, science, and major courses, while BA majors are more focused on the liberal arts.
BFA and BM degrees are heavily focused on the execution of an artistic practice and require more major courses.
Professional SchoolsCarolina offers undergraduate degrees in the following professional schools:
Business (BS)
Dentistry (Dental Hygiene) (BS)
Information and Library Science (BS)
Journalism and Mass Communication (BA)
Medicine (Clinical Laboratory Science and Radiologic Science) (BS)
Nursing (BS)
Pharmacy (Pharm D*)
Public Health (BS)
*The Pharm D, though technically not an undergraduate degree, is offered to undergraduates by the School of Pharmacy. Acceptance to the program is by application.
Important points about pursuing professional school degrees
Acceptance into all professional schools is competitive and requires an application, generally submitted during the sophomore year. Exception: the School of Journalism has no formal application.
Each professional school requires completion of a specific set of required courses—with grade requirements set by each school—before admission.
If you are considering one of the professional schools, it is extremely important that you are also working towards a feasible alternative major in case you are not accepted to your school of choice.
First-year students, you can use the information in the charts on page 53–54 to help you plan for your first year or two.
Transfer students, you should consult the charts in this section and speak with an academic advisor about your options. Please note the charts do not include all required courses for these programs.
Major/Minor CombinationsAll students must complete one major in order to graduate. The University permits a student to graduate with any of the following combinations:
one major
one major and one minor
one major and two minors
two majors, or
two majors and one minor.

Pre-Law UNC-CH offers no pre-law major. Most law schools accept students from all majors. Advising is available for students interested in pursuing law school via the Office of Graduate and Pre-Professional Advising at careers.unc.edu/pre-professional-advising.
Health-Related Professions Dental, Medical, Nursing, Optometry, Pharmacy, Veterinary or others:
Carolina does not offer majors specifically designed to prepare students for the health professions.
Most majors are suitable preparation provided that students take additional prerequisite courses and pursue appropriate c0-curricular activities.
The Pre-Health Advising Office serves students interested in these and other health professions (e.g., physician’s assistant, podiatry, physical therapy, etc.); advisors are available by appointment and on a walk-in basis throughout the academic year. Consult Pre-Health Advising at prehealth.unc.edu.
Advanced Degrees The University also offers highly-motivated undergraduate students the opportunity to earn a Master of Arts degree in certain programs by completing additional course work, usually in a fifth year of study. Some programs require completion of an undergraduate degree before beginning. Several of these programs lead to an MA in Teaching in specific disciplines, such as English and the sciences. Additionally, there are seven joint BA/MA degree programs: Computer
Science, Contemporary European/Trans-Atlantic Studies, Environmental Sciences & Engineering, Franco-Arab Studies, French & Francophone Studies, Information & Library Science, and Mathematical Decision Science & Operations Research. For information on these programs, consult the Undergraduate Bulletin.
undeCIded If you are undecided about a major, don’t worry!
Use your first year to choose interesting courses to explore different fields of study, while also fulfilling graduation requirements.
Foundations courses prepare you for all majors and are a priority during your first year.
Look at pages 49–54 to see suggested and/or required courses for majors that interest you, and pay particular attention to any courses required of first-year students.
Consider taking EDUC 131 Career Exploration, a one- credit course taught by University Career Services professionals designed to assist students in exploring majors and career options.
Transfer students who are undecided should consult with an academic advisor early in the Fall to discuss potential majors and completing them within the eight- semester limit.

AddItIOnAl MInOrs Offered nOt lIsted On PAges 49–53 Education (School of Education), Military Science, Naval Science, Speech and Hearing Sciences (Department of Allied Sciences), Urban Studies and Planning.
IMPOrtAnt nOtICe regArdIng tHe MAjOr In eduCAtIOn: Students entering the University in Fall 2014 should know that the School of Education is in the process of redesigning its teacher licensure programs to meet increasing state and national requirements for professional educators. Faculty members will be developing a dual BA-MAT program in education for students who have earned a bachelor’s degree in an appropriate subject area. Students who desire an initial license to teach children from birth to prekindergarten or prekindergarten through elementary or middle grades (in mathematics, science, social studies or language arts) can expect to apply to the newly redesigned graduate programs beginning in Fall 2016; at that time the bachelor of arts degree with a major in education will be discontinued. The School of Education website will provide updated information as it becomes available. For those wishing to obtain licensure in secondary mathematics or science (grades nine through 12) or music education (grades kindergarten thorugh12), the School of Education continues to offer initial licensure at the undergraduate level.

part ii: course placement & credits
Overview This section of the Advising Guide will assist you in determining:
1) what academic credit you may have earned through standardized tests and,
2) in which level you should begin English Composition and Rhetoric, foreign language and mathematics.
BE = “by-examination” PL = “placement”
There is no limit on the number of BE courses that can be used for General Education Requirements or elective credit. Additionally, BE and PL courses may be used to satisfy major/minor requirements with the following limitations:
No more than two courses (6–8 credit hours) of BE credit may be used as part of the core requirements in any major.
No more than one course (3–4 credit hours) of BE credit may be used as part of a minor.
BE and PL credit does not count toward minimum grade requirements in majors or minors.
Some majors/minors require a student to complete a specific number of courses and/or credit hours in the field; in these cases PL credit used in the major/minor may necessitate the student taking additional course(s) to meet the course and/or credit-hour requirement.
english Composition and rhetoric All UNC-Chapel Hill undergraduate students must complete or transfer in the equivalent of ENGL 105. Some students, however, will need to complete ENGL 100 Basic Writing before enrolling in ENGL 105. Use the chart below to determine your starting level for the English Composition and Rhetoric requirement:
english Composition and rhetoric
Math Placement for the natural sciences, Mathematics and Health ProfessionsWHy MAtH 110? All Natural Science, Mathematics, and Health Professions majors and minors have MATH 110 (Algebra) as a prerequisite to required math, statistics and chemistry sequences. Some majors in Social and Behavioral Sciences also require MATH 110 (see page 52). Accordingly, you must place out of or complete MATH 110 if you are planning to take any of the following courses and/or programs of study:
Business (requires statistics/calculus-based course)
Chemistry (including CHEM 101)
Economics (major)
Exercise and Sport Sciences (all concentrations except Sports Administration)
Statistics (STOR 112 and above)
Math/Calculus (MATH 130 and above)
Management and Society (major)
Most science majors (including Psychology BS)
Pre-Med/Dental course work
Additionally: the Psychology (BA) and Journalism majors have recommended coursework that require MATH 110 as a prerequisite.
Note: MATH 110 does not meet the Quantitative
Reasoning Requirement or any other General Education Requirement.
While MATH 110 is not a formal prerequisite for ECON 101 Introduction to Economics, The UNC-CH Department of Economics strongly recommends that students place out of or complete MATH 110 before taking this course.

Not all majors/minors require chemistry, calculus, statistics or MATH 110; review the information on pages 49–54 to determine if your intended major requires this course. If you will not need MATH 110, there are other options for you to complete the Quantitative Reasoning Requirement; see below for a list of courses.
eArnIng MAtH 110
There are three ways to earn MATH 110:
• Through placement credit earned by a score on a standardized test.
o Check the Mathematical Sciences Placement Chart on page 58.
• Through transfer credit.
o If you have transfer credit, check ConnectCarolina to see if you have MATH 110 PL.
• Through completing the course at Carolina.
o Enrollment in MATH 110 at Carolina is conditional upon an appropriate test score as outlined in the Mathematical Sciences Placement Chart on page 58.
o If you have not completed one of the designated tests on the Mathematical Sciences Placement Chart, you may not enroll directly into MATH 110; instead, you must take the SAT Subject Test in Mathematics to determine your placement.
sAt suBjeCt test (sAt II) In MAtHeMAtICs
If you have already taken the SAT Subject Test in Mathematics Level 1 and do not intend to begin your math sequence with MATH 231 (see Math Sequencing below), there is no need to take the SAT Subject Test in Mathematics Level 2.
The University recommends that all students who intend to take calculus and do not already have MATH 129PL (based on the Mathematical Sciences Placement Chart on page 58) to take the SAT Subject Test in Mathematics Level 2.
If you need to take the SAT Subject Test in Mathematics Level 2, please register for the exam at collegeboard.org.

If you placed into 100/101, 102/105 or 203, enroll in that level.
When registering, for Chinese or Japanese enroll in the level into which you expect to place; you
can make any needed changes after taking the exam.
foreign language Placement All students must demonstrate competency at, or complete through, Level 3 of a foreign language. Use the information included in this section to determine your foreign language placement and credit (if any).
• If you earn PL or BE credit for Level 3 or higher you are not required to take additional foreign language courses at UNC-CH unless your major/minor requires additional levels. (For higher levels, see the course offerings in ConnectCarolina.)
• If you place into Level 1 of the foreign language you studied in high school and wish to continue studying that language at UNC-CH, you should enroll in that level. However, the credit hours for Level 1 will not count toward the minimum 120 academic hours required for graduation (exceptions: Modern Hebrew and Japanese). Credit hours for Level 2 and 3 of your high school foreign language will count toward graduation.
• You must enroll in the level in which you placed. If after attending one or two sessions, you do not believe your skills match the level of the course, speak with your instructor about changing your placement level.
• Students may not drop a Foundations (Levels 1, 2 or 3) foreign language course after the tenth day of classes (September 2, 2014), without permission from an Assistant Dean. Permission is granted only in extraordinary circumstances.

All students are required to be familiar with and adhere to the policies and procedures included in the Undergraduate Bulletin (unc.edu/ugradbulletin). You are expected to refer regularly to the Bulletin for academic requirements and policies; you may consult with an academic advisor for clarification and with additional questions. Below are a few of the more pertinent rules new students need to know.
registration PoliciesseMester COurse lOAd
You are required to complete your degree in no more than eight (8) semesters. You are allowed an unlimited number of summer sessions. Transfer students: see pages 82–83 for important information on calculating your number of semesters remaining.
All students must be enrolled in at least 12 academic hours each Fall/Spring semester to maintain their full-time status.
To meet the minimum graduation requirement of 120 academic hours in eight semesters, you should average 15 hours per semester and/or take summer courses. (Some majors require more than 120 hours for graduation.)
Failure to enroll in at least 12 hours in a Fall or Spring semester can potentially have negative consequences for academic eligibility, future registration, insurance, and financial aid.
We recommend a first-semester course load of 15–17 hours, which gives you the option of dropping a course should it become necessary.
You may register for up to 17 credit hours until August 7. After that date, the credit load for all students increases to 18 hours.
AP/IB credit (BE/PL—see section II), transfer credit, and summer courses can give you more flexibility in the number of hours you take each semester.
Note: The path to reach graduation will be different for each and every student! Numerous variables affect a student’s path to graduation (e.g., earning BE/PL or transfer credit hours; attending summer school or studying abroad; completing a double major, a major and a minor, or a single major, etc.).
ACAdeMIC HOurs Most courses award three hours of academic credit, but there are some common exceptions.
Levels 1 and 2 of some foreign languages award four hours of academic credit, and most natural science courses with built-in labs award four credit hours.
Lifetime Fitness and most free-standing labs grant one hour of credit.
PHYA (Physical Activity) courses are listed as one-hour courses but do not count toward the 12-hour minimum enrollment per semester or toward graduation.
COurse InfOrMAtIOn: seCtIOns, PrerequIsItes And CrOss-lIstIngs There may be more than one section of the same
course taught in a semester.
• The section number identifies the instructor, the time, and the location of the course. For example, ENGL 105 will have multiple sections as follows: ENGL 105–001, ENGL 105–002, etc., each taught at a different time by a different instructor.
• Sections numbered 851–853, 900–994, 950–959 and 988 are offered through the UNC William and Ida Friday Center for Continuing Education and have restrictions; see your Sakai site for more information.
The Undergraduate Bulletin includes any prerequisites for each course. ConnectCarolina will not necessarily prevent you from registering for a course with a prerequisite. It is your responsibility to enroll only in courses for which you have completed the prerequisites.
When a course is listed under two (or more) departments (i.e., “cross-listed”), you may enroll in any of the given course departments and numbers. Each will count equally.
reCItAtIOns Some large lecture courses have a required small-
group discussion section called a recitation.
A recitation is not extra work but an integral part of a course, and you should not hesitate to take a course with a recitation.
Recitations give no hours of academic credit.
Often, the last digit of a course section number will correspond with the first digit of the associated recitation sections. For example, a course section number of 006 would have recitation section numbers in the 600s.

WAItlIsts During registration you have the opportunity to
place your name on the waitlist of one course.
However, we caution you to use this option wisely, as waitlists are no guarantee that you will receive a seat in the class. In short, waitlists do not move quickly.
Courses that you waitlist count toward the maximum number of hours you may register for.
You may add your name to a waitlist through Thursday, August 7; after that date, ConnectCarolina will continue to automatically enroll students from the waitlist if seats become available, however you will no longer be able to add your name to a list.
Therefore, on August 8, you should check your schedule on ConnectCarolina; if you are not in the class, look up your position on the waitlist, then consider choosing a course that is open.
Be sure you begin the semester enrolled in at least 12 academic hours (15–17 hours are recommended).
AddIng COurses Through August 25: you may add a course to your
schedule using ConnectCarolina if there are open seats.
After August 25, instructors are not obligated to add you to a course. Adding courses after the second week of the semester is not recommended and is not usually possible unless you have been attending the class regularly.
August 26–September 2: instructors and academic departments may add students to courses at their discretion.
• Students are expected to check ConnectCarolina to be sure they are correctly enrolled in all courses they are attending no later than the end of the second week of classes.
After the second week of classes: under certain circumstances, a student may be allowed to add a course; in these cases, the student should consult with an academic advisor.
• If deemed appropriate the advisor will issue the student an add form.
• The student will take the add form to the course instructor for his/her signature and return it to Academic Advising for processing.
• Important: the adding of courses at this point may also be subject to approval by an academic dean.
drOPPIng COursesAll first-year students entering UNC-Chapel Hill in Fall 2014 are subject to a new course drop policy. (Transfer students entering the University in Fall 2014 are not subject to these new rules; they will follow the drop rules listed in the 2013–2014 Undergraduate Bulletin.)
Students are expected to ensure that their schedules do not fall below the minimum 12 academic hours required for full-time registration.
Through the end of the second week of classes (September 2 2014): Students may drop courses online using ConnectCarolina.
Weeks three through eight (September 3 – October 13): Students may drop a course as follows:
• Students should not stop attending any class or completing assignments unless and until their academic advisor or dean officially approves dropping the course from the student’s schedule.
• Students who wish to drop a course must obtain a registration/drop/add form from their academic advisor. Both the advisor and student must sign the form.
• Students may not drop below 12 academic hours.
• For courses dropped during this period, a grade of WC (withdrawal by choice) shall be recorded.
• Once declared, a WC grade cannot be rescinded except when a student withdraws from an entire semester due to extenuating circumstances.
• Students are allowed no more than 16 hours of WC grades during their undergraduate career.
October 13, 2014 is the last day undergraduates may drop a Fall 2014 course or declare a course on the Pass/D+/D/F grading basis. See advising.unc.edu/policies-and-procedures/pass-fail or an advisor for more information.
In extenuating circumstances, a student may be allowed to drop a course after the eighth week of classes. In this case, a student must petition the dean of his/her college for permission. (See an academic advisor for more information.)
Important: Even if it would not cause you to drop below 12 academic hours, you may not drop ENGL 100/105/105i or a Foundations-level foreign language course (levels 1–3) after the second week of classes (September 2, 2014) without permission of an assistant dean in Academic Advising. Permission is granted only in extenuating circumstances.

student success standards (eligibility)At the end of each term, undergraduates earn an academic status that determines their eligibility to continue enrollment. To enroll in a Fall or Spring semester, students must have a 2.000 cumulative UNC-Chapel Hill grade-point average and make satisfactory progress each term in the number of credit hours passed. Students who fall below the designated standards may enroll in Summer Session courses, and are encouraged to do so.
It is your responsibility to check your academic status in ConnectCarolina at the end of each term.
To check your status:
Log into connectcarolina.unc.edu.
Navigate to the Student Center.
Choose “Grades” from the “other academic” drop-down menu on the left.
Select the term you have just completed and click “Continue.”
View your Academic Standing at the bottom of the page, under your course grades.
You may also receive important messages about your academic standing in the “To Do List” on the Student Center page. You should always read these messages and follow the instructions they provide.
Additional information about academic eligibility and academic probation can be found at studentsuccess.unc.edu. If you have any questions about your academic standing, speak with an academic advisor. Appointments with advisors can be made online at advising.unc.edu.

1. Seek a balance in your schedule. a. Select a combination of courses that include Foundations and Approaches, prerequisites for an intended
major, and electives of interest.
b. Grouping all of your courses into two days (e.g., Mondays and Wednesday) may be tempting, but you need to give yourself time in between each class to study, review for a quiz, eat. Instead, spread your classes out over all fi ve days and leave room for breaks between classes. Tip: leave some time after your LFIT for showering before going to your next class.
2. If you are considering a major in the sciences,a. You are strongly encouraged to take one mathematics and one science course in your fi rst semester if you
do not already have credit for them.
b. Do not enroll, however, in more than one mathematics and one science course (especially CHEM 101 and 101L) in your fi rst semester.
c. Even though PSYC 101 fulfi lls a science requirement (PL), feel free to take this course in addition to the above limitations.
d. Science and math courses usually follow a set sequence, based on prerequisite requirements for each course. The information in the section “Majors at Carolina” will help you plan your fi rst year at Carolina.
e. First-year students should not enroll in any chemistry or biology course numbered above 199.
f. Experience tells us that new students need at least one semester to adjust to Carolina academics. Limiting the number of science and math courses in the fi rst term helps students succeed, and keeps you on track for any intended major or career path.
If you are not considering a major in the sciences, you do not necessarily need to take a math and/or science in your fi rst semester. At Orientation, you can discuss your options with an advisor.
3. Remember, you are planning for your fi rst semester, not your entire four years.
a. You can stay on track for the most demanding of majors and career plans with one or two required general education or prerequisite courses in your fi rst semester.
b. Use this opportunity to begin exploring options.

4. What if you already have credit for one or more requirements? a. Choose from a range of courses from the lists in this Guide.
b. While you may be tempted to take a more advanced course, Academic Advising strongly advises against this. Intermediate and upper-level courses are usually not appropriate for fi rst-semester students, even if you have credit for a prerequisite.
c. Courses numbered >200 presume academic and research skills that you may not have had the opportunity to develop. Please refer to the UNC-CH Course Numbering System explanation on page 69 for more information.
d. Also, do not let the fact that you have BE or PL credit for a curriculum category dissuade you from taking additional courses from that category!
5. Course availability during summer registration:a. It is important to know that the University does everything possible to ensure that introductory-level
General Education courses will be available to students when they register this Summer, and that all students will have the ability to register for at least 12–15 during their Summer registration window. Even if you wish to carry a lighter load in your fi rst semester (i.e., 12–14 hours), we strongly recommend that you begin the Fall semester with 15–17 hours to allow fl exibility if you need to drop a course.
b. It is realistic to expect limited availability in some courses. First-year students who attend Orientation in June or July will have a chance to make adjustments to their Fall schedule beginning on August 7 at 11:00AM EDT. Some courses that were closed during your registration window may have open seats then. Students who attend the August Make-up Orientation will have an equitable opportunity for classes recommended for fi rst-year students.
c. Due to limited availability, not all students will be able to enroll in ENGL 105 or LFIT in the Fall. If these courses are not available, you may take them in the Spring term.
