Supplemental Regulations
There are several resources available to assist you in meeting your academic and personal
goals. Registration at the University of South Carolina assumes the students' acceptance
of all published regulations. The academic bulletins are the official documents of
record concerning undergraduate and graduate academic programs and regulations. These
bulletins are for information purposes only and do not constitute any contractual
agreement between a student and the University of South Carolina. The University
reserves the right to make changes in curricula, degree requirements, course offerings,
or academic regulations at any time when, in the judgment of the faculty, the president,
or the Board of Trustees, such changes are in the best interest of the students and
the University.
All graduate students are also responsible for the regulations listed below:
