Concurrent Handbook
The Journey Begins!
Congratulations on your decision to take concurrent college classes at Oklahoma State
University. Concurrent coursework is a great way to step into the college world while
still in high school. While it may be easy to get lost in the excitement of college
life, it is important to remember that these classes mark the beginning of your academic
record in higher education and while a new level of commitment will be required for
your college classes you will be supported by many resources at OSU.
Advisement
Your advisor assists you with course selection, schedule planning and academic guidance
including accessing resources that are dedicated to aiding in your success as a college
student. Work closely with both your OSU advisor and your high school counselor to make sure you are meeting your goals and staying on
track to graduate.
Concurrent students take freshman (1000 level) and sophomore (2000 level) courses.
The first number of a course tells you the level of the course, and the last number
tell you the number of credit hours. If you want to make changes to your schedule
after enrollment, ALWAYS contact your academic advisor and high school counselor to
determine the best course of action.
