Checklist for sophomores
Staying on track
- Review the checklist for first-year students.
- Consult with an academic adviser in the academic unit to determine what courses and grade point average are required for the major. Some academic units and some departments within academic units have competitive admission requirements. To check degree progress, consult a degree audit (DARS), if available.
- Visit the International Center or attend a fair to learn more about study abroad opportunities.
- Start researching internship opportunities by visiting the MU Career Center or the Office of Service Learning or by talking with the academic adviser or faculty in the selected major.
- Continue involvement with student organizations and volunteering. Consider taking on more leadership responsibilities.
- Make sure that permanent and local addresses are updated with the Office of the University Registrar. Students may update addresses through myZou.
- Register and pay fees by the appropriate deadlines.
