Transfer Students

Welcome to San José State University and the Department of Communication Studies! We're honored you chose communication studies as your major.

To get started at SJSU and in the major:

• find out from your previous school if you're GE certified for SJSU. GE certified means that you've completed all the Core GE requirements for SJSU
• if you haven't taken the WST (Writing Skills Test), sign up for it right away (you must have taken and passed English 1B or its equivalent before you take the WST)
• attend the Transfer Information Program session for which you've been scheduled
• meet with a major advisor

For the first semester, you'll want to register for:

• COMM 101C, Introduction to Communication Studies (an introduction to the discipline and a pre-requisite for COMM 198 and COMM 199C)
• one Foundations, Inquiry, or Practice course
• COMM 100W, Writing Workshop (SJSU Studies Area Z)
• one course in your minor
• an SJSU Studies (upper-division GE) course

The most important step you can take to achieve your educational goals at SJSU is meeting with an advisor as soon as you're admitted to SJSU. So contact us right now!
