Other Things To
Consider:
Read the options
below and click the appropriate links for
information that pertains to your academic plan.
Once you have read through the information,
proceed to the bottom of this page to start the
Course Request Form.
1. AP, IB, and College
credit
New students sometimes enter
their freshman year with college credit from
Advanced Placement Exams, International
Baccalaureate Exams, and local college and
university courses. As part of your Course
Request Form we will ask you to list all
exam and college credit that you have already
earned or that you think you may earn. (We
realize that you may not have received all of your
AP scores yet.) Your advisor will take this
information into account when creating your
schedule. For example, if you have taken the
Psychology AP exam and your MAP requires you to take A Psy 101, your
advisor will make an appropriate substitution.

6. Freshman
Seminar
These classes are designed specifically for
freshmen to get to know each other and a member of
our faculty in a small class setting. They are
great opportunities to learn about a cutting edge
topic from our best faculty while developing the
skills needed to be a successful UAlbany student.
Most meet once a week for 55 minutes and provide
students with an intimate learning experience
designed to help them acclimate to the academic
challenges at the University at Albany.
