Acad Career

DRAFT

Acad Career designates how courses are split up on the transcript. When a student gets admitted before they start, everything appears under “Undergraduate.” When a student gets admitted and they have their Bachelor’s, it appears as “Graduate.” Within my.SDSU, there will be a new "Global Campus" career for non-matriculated students who are taking courses in extended education that would not count toward their graduate or undergraduate statistics. This is tied to admission and course type.

Business Rules

The Undergraduate Academic Career includes only the first baccalaureate academic program a student pursues at the institution as well as work completed by transitory and non-matriculated students taking courses through Open University program that have not previously earned a baccalaureate degree.

The Post-baccalaureate Academic Career includes any graduate or credential academic work pursued by a student, any second baccalaureate work, as well as work completed by transitory and non-matriculated students taking courses through Open University program that have previously earned a baccalaureate degree.

The Extended Education Academic Career includes students taking English Language courses for language development and students taking courses for non-credit.
