2 Academic Advising
Prior to your departure from IU, meet with your departmental advisors to confirm your academic progress, according to the directions emailed to you by Education Abroad. Make an appointment at Education Abroad to make tentative plans regarding what courses you will take abroad. Utilize the Education Abroad Course Equivalency Database for IU course equivalencies. Australian universitywebsitestypically have a timetable, which is a schedule of classes, and a handbook or catalogue, which is more for course descriptions, pre- requisites, etc… Note that Semester I (autumn semester) runs from February through July while Semester II (spring semester) runs from July through November. Take courses appropriate to your previous preparation, normally second- and third-year courses in your major or minor. In disciplines that are new to you, restrict yourself to first-year classes.
