All new BSISDA students must complete ISDA 101 within the first four weeks of their first semester. Requests to add the class after the semester has started are not granted without extenuating circumstances and must be within the first 7 days. No exceptions.

This 1-unit CR/NC introductory course covers key technologies and strategies for online learning, including learning management tools, library databases, web conferencing, and more. Delivered 100% asynchronously online. 

Any student who does not successfully complete the course in their first semester is placed on academic notice. A registration hold will prevent enrollment in other courses. After a discussion with one of the Program Coordinators, a second attempt may be granted if the student presents compelling reasons for not having completed the course.

Failure to pass ISDA 101 on the second attempt leads to disqualification from the university.
