Academic Check-in & Transcript Review

Now is a good time to review your transcript and check for any discrepancies. Please access your Unofficial Transcript in StudentAdmin and have it available as you are answering the following questions. If you are unsure how to do this, your Peer Mentor will assist you in navigating StudentAdmin.

Current Declared Major*

Please check your transcript to ensure the major you have declared matches your intended major.

Business students need to declare a business major by the end of their 3rd term (you cannot enroll in business courses without a declared business major).

Use our Engage Now page to find more information! School of Business Major Pages The Major Experience (TME)

If you know the business major you'd like to declare, use our Major Declaration Form to declare now!

Have ALL of your AP/IB/transfer credits posted to your unofficial transcript?*

These will be listed under Fall 2025.

Yes

No, and I am taking the action to see this through

Some, but I'm expecting more to post and am taking the action to see this through

I'm not expecting any AP/IB/transfer credits

If AP credits have not yet posted, contact www.collegeboard.org to have AP scores sent. If you are expecting Transfer credits, contact OneStop to see if they’ve received the official transcript you sent and/or contact the institution you earned credits from to ensure your official transcript has been sent. All info on steps for this was reviewed at Orientation and summarized here.

Have you decided which ECE credits to accept/reject?*

Remember, you will receive instructions from our office around mid-October for how to officially accept/reject ECE credits. Generally, we recommend accepting any credits where you earned a 'B' or better and rejecting any credits where you earned a 'B-" or lower. If you have questions, you can discuss with your Peer Mentor or use our virtual drop-in advising hours to discuss with an advisor.

Yes

No, I'm waiting to see my final grades from this semester before deciding

No, I'm just not sure what I should accept/reject

I do not have ECE credits

Please detail any information that is missing or that you expect to change (AP/transfer credits, etc).*

Use the (+) sign on the right to add rows to list all of the classes you plan on taking in the Spring based on your self-audit and your conversation with your Peer Mentor.

At this time, are you planning to: (check all that apply)

Study abroad?

Complete a minor?

Complete a dual degree? (note that a dual degree requires 138 total credits, often extending your graduation timeline)

Graduate early?

Study abroad*

When and where? It's ok to not know specifics now but having a general sense of where/when you'd like to go abroad will be helpful. Your Peer Mentor can help you navigate the Experiential Global Learning website to search programs and start the planning process for going abroad.

Minor(s)*

List any subject(s) you're considering below. Your Peer Mentor can show you how to find lists of the minors UConn offers and additional information about minor requirements.

Dual degree*

Subject

What is your goal graduation term?*

Your total earned credits at end of Fall 2025:*

Use your transcript to find this information. It is current EARNED credits, plus current IN PROGRESS credits (not necessarily what is in the "attempted" column!). If this number is 54+ you will need to achieve a 3.0 cumulative GPA at the end of the Fall semester

Remember to include any EXPECTED credits in this number--so ECE credits you are accepting, and/or AP/IB/Transfer credits that have not posted yet! If you are not sure of the total credits, you can simply enter above something like "36 credits PLUS whatever ends up posting" so it's very clear and you know to check this number when things are resolved, and we know you are taking action. REMEMBER, IF THIS NUMBER ENDS UP BEING 54 CREDITS OR MORE, a 3.0 CGPA is required at the end of the Fall term. Visit drop-in advising hours with any questions.

Personal Progress

Reflect on your time so far as a student in UConn’s School of Business.

What engagement opportunities have you explored across campus (ie. student organizations, cultural centers, etc.) or in your community?*

Your Peer Mentor is a great source of information about ways to get engaged and Build Your Business Experience. Use this meeting to help identify ways you can continue to grow experience as a business student.

After reflecting on your engagement at UConn thus far with your Peer Mentor, are there things you hope to add to your experience? Please list any engagement goals and/or areas of exploration below.*

Generally, how has your semester gone?*

What is your biggest challenge this semester? What do you need help with?*

How are you planning to address this challenge?*

My Goals*

Now that you've had a chance to reflect on your UConn experience so far, please list two goals you have for yourself this semester. These can be academic, engagement, or personal goals that you hope to achieve by the end of this term.

Follow-up Peer Mentor Meeting

Your Peer Mentor will now assist you in scheduling a follow-up Peer Mentor meeting to be held after registration (scheduled for November 3, 2025 or later). This will be a great time to reflect on your time at UConn so far, review how registration went, and talk about ways to prepare for the Spring.

My Follow-up Peer Mentor Meeting is scheduled for:*

Based on your meeting with the student, are there any concerns or points of information you want to bring to the attention of the student's advisor?*

Examples would include: student expressed significant struggle with semester/transition, student has complicated/unusual academic plan, student has complications with credits on transcript, etc...

Yes

Please detail any information you'd like to bring to the advisor's attention.*
