Advising Information

Learn how CAP courses will fit within your USI degree plan as well as how to investigate course usefulness with another institution both within Indiana and out of state.

Financial Aid & Dual Credit

Did you know that too much dual credit (including Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and course withdrawals) that doesn't apply to your degree can reduce the amount of federal financial aid available later in your college career? For most students, the limit is 180 credit hours. If you earn 27 hours in dual credit, you have 153 credit hours left for your federal financial aid. Contact Student Financial Assistance for more details.
