This is the preliminary (or launch) version of the 2024-2025 VCU Bulletin. Courses that expose students to cutting-edge content and transformative learning may be added and notification of additional program approvals may be received prior to finalization. General education program content is also subject to change. The final edition and full PDF version will include these updates and will be available in August prior to the beginning of the fall semester.
Academic advising for sophomores, juniors and seniors is generally provided by faculty and professional advisers within the school or college where their major resides. Students in foundation programs such as Business Foundation, Art Foundation or Lower-division Social Work are continuously advised by University Academic Advising until their successful admission into upper-division standing. Students in pre-nursing, pre-medical laboratory sciences, pre-clinical radiation sciences and pre-dental hygiene are continuously advised by pre-health advisers in UAA until their successful admission to a professional program or transition into parallel majors.
