The starting point for most students is advice and permission from a faculty advisor.

NOTES: 1) Some courses may require the use of technologies such as streaming audio and video or large file downloads requiring more processor power, more computer memory, and/or a high-speed internet connection for good performance. 2) Check with the instructor regarding software preferences before making a software purchase.  3) Please also review USI's Data Communication and Computer Use Policy.
