How long can I stay in the QUEST Program?
You can stay in the program up to three semesters. That will be the middle of your sophomore year. Of course, if you decide what you want to major in that first semester, we will help you transfer to the college that houses that major.
Will I have an assigned academic adviser?
Yes, all students in the Student Success Center/University College will have an assigned adviser. This way you will get to know your adviser better and they will get to know you and your needs better as well. Just call our office if you forget who your adviser is or to find out who you have been assigned to.
Because I am undecided on a major, will it take me longer to graduate?
Because you will be focusing on the core curriculum for the University, as long as you pass you classes each term, it should not take you longer to graduate once you declare your major.
Where do I go to see my academic adviser?
Rocket Hall room 1400. Please call head to set up an appointment; the number to call is 419-530-1250.
How do I know which courses count as Core Requirements?
The University of Toledo’s General Catalog lists the core requirements for any Bachelor’s degree. The Student Success Center has a list of available core requirements each semester, and your QUEST adviser can assist you in selecting the appropriate core classes. A list of core requirements is also available
What is the procedure to Add or Drop a course?
Students can add and drop courses the first three calendar days of the term on the Web for Students site. After the fourth day of the term, an instructor’s signature is required to add a class. You may pick up a Course Request Form at the Student Success Center, and return the signed form to the Office of the Registrar. An instructor’s signature is not required to drop a class.
