You will see the SDState courses received from your transfer evaluation under the term you took the courses.

I鈥檝e looked at my transfer courses for my completed transfer evaluation. How can I see how they can apply to my SDState major?

You can see how transfer courses from a completed evaluation may apply to your SDState major by running a Program Evaluation on Self Service under the Academic Profile menu.

When I received my completed transfer evaluation, I had a course that transferred as elective credit, but I think it should have transferred as a specific SDState course. What can I do?

To request a different equivalent course from a transfer evaluation, please submit a Transfer Equivalency Change Request form. This form is available in the Records Office in the Enrollment Services Center at the reception desk, or call Transfer Services at 605-688-4607.

I sent my AP and CLEP scores to SDState, but I don鈥檛 see the credit on my SDState transcript. Is there anything else that I need to do?

Do I need a specific laptop or computer?

Whether you are writing a term paper, accessing lecture slides from your professor, or simply taking a break to update your social media from the past weekend, it鈥檚 increasingly important to stay connected. A specific computer brand or system is not generally required, but the Office of Information Technology provides recommended system specifications to keep you ahead of the curve. Be sure to check with your academic adviser for information regarding any specific technology-related requirements for your major.

If I don鈥檛 know who my adviser is or don鈥檛 have one listed on Self Service, what do I do?

You can come to the Wintrode Student Success and Opportunity Center to check on your adviser assignment. At the center, an adviser can work with you and your department to be sure you are assigned to an adviser in your major area of study. The advisers will also be able to answer your questions until you make contact with your assigned adviser.

I served in the military. Does SDState award college credit for military experience?

Yes, with approved documentation, SDState awards up to six credits for completion of basic training and can give additional credit with applicable military experience. SDState can review your military experience upon receipt of an official JST-Joint Services Transcript, CCAF-Community College of the Air Force Transcript or a DD-214 form.
