University publications: UTSA Information gives important information about academic policies and procedures that applies to all students, regardless of the catalog under which they are seeking their degree. It includes residence requirements, policies on grades and the grade point average, credit by examination, adding and dropping courses and withdrawal from the University, and scholastic probation and dismissal. This publication also gives historical and current information about the University’s organization and physical facilities.

The UTSA Undergraduate Catalog and the UTSA Graduate Catalog provide information about degrees offered by the colleges, degree requirements for all majors, courses offered in the departments, and the faculty in each area.

Advising: UTSA views sound academic advising as a significant responsibility in educating its students. Students are encouraged to seek academic advising prior to selecting a specific major to ensure that they complete degree requirements in an appropriate and timely manner. Prospective students can seek information about UTSA academic programs from UTSA’s Visitor Center or the colleges in which the degree programs are located.

Two centers provide academic advising for new and transfer freshmen (under 30 semester credit hours accepted by UTSA). With the exception of Honors freshmen, all freshmen who have not decided upon a major or have provisional status are advised through the Tomás Rivera Center. Freshmen who have decided upon a major are advised through the Colleges’ Freshman Advising Center.

Honors freshmen are advised by the Honors College. Scholarship athletes are dually advised by the center of their major and the athletic advisor.

Beyond the freshman year (30 earned semester credit hours and more), declared majors are advised through the advising center of the major. Undecided students continue with the Tomás Rivera Center until a major is decided. On the UTSA Downtown Campus freshmen through seniors with declared majors should contact the Colleges’ Downtown Advising Center.
