Fall 2026 first year admits who register for New Student Orientation by the deadline, will be eligible for Smart Start.
Smart Start allows the Registrar's Office to place you into 8-16 units of required coursework in your first semester based on your major. You are encouraged to check if you are satisfying Normal Progress Policy. For more support, you meet with your temporary BAC summer academic advisor who will be assigned to you at the start of June.
