About University Studies

The University Studies department consists of classes and workshops that are designed to prepare students for the courses they will take as part of Harding’s liberal arts curriculum. Through University Studies, academic support services provides instruction, support and resources to help students develop the skills needed to succeed academically in their college career. University Foundation courses are required for students with ACT composites of 19 or below or a combined critical reading/math score of below 1020 on the SAT, and less than 14 hours of transferred college credit (over 2 semesters after high school).

Advising

Classes are assigned by the director of University Studies, who is also the advisor for all students within University Foundations learning community.

It's possible to complete our program in one semester. If you have completed the program and declared a major, you will be transferred to an advisor in your major field of study for assistance in selecting classes. Those who have not yet declared a major will be advised by one of the instructors in our program.

 

Assistance

Our program director will guide you through your first semester, and additional help is offered if further assistance is needed.
