Students should take these two courses during their first semester at college. Students need to keep in mind that they only have one year to successfully complete the courses with a C- or better. Taking the courses in the first semester allows students the chance to retake a course if there is a situation that requires them to do so. After successfully completing the one year DGS agreement your status as a DGS student will end. The courses you take with DGS will appear on your college transcript, because they have earned you four SCSU elective credits.
DGS students are full members of the SCSU campus community and have the opportunity for participation in all SCSU activities, services, and programs. For example, students can compete in and attend sporting events, take any SCSU course, and join SCSU clubs/student organizations.
In the 2011-2012 academic year nearly 1/3 of all newly entering students were enrolled as DGS students for the fall semester. During the spring semester a small number of students have been enrolled as well.
