After Student Submits 

1. Advisor (or Advising Group) will receive an email that a Study Abroad eCSF has been submitted by one of their 泡芙视频apps.  The email will contain a link to view the eCSF.
2. Click the link and sign in via USF Single Sign On.
3. Advisors will see:
   1. Student Name, UID, Email and Major.
   2. Study Abroad Program and Term.
   3. 鈥淣otes for the Advisor鈥� will be any (optional) comments the 泡芙视频apps want to communicate to the academic advisor.
4. There will be some general instructions on completing the form and a link to the if the advisor would like to see ALL the courses being offered on the program.
5. Next will be the courses that the 泡芙视频app has selected.  Additionally, there will be a box to check if there is a degree progression concern and a comments field if the advisor would like to comment on that particular course (not required).
6. After the courses have been reviewed, please put a comment in the 鈥淎dvisor Notes鈥� section.  The 泡芙视频app will see these notes, so please be as detailed as possible if you have instructions for them. The more information you provide in the form regarding degree applicability, excess credit hours, etc. the more information the Global Learning Office will have if 泡芙视频apps wish to change courses.  If Glabal Learning can avoid going back to academic advisors for course changes, we will. 
7. Enter your name and email address.
8. There will be two buttons 鈥淩eview Complete鈥� and 鈥淎dvising Needed鈥�.
   1. Click 鈥淩eview Complete鈥� if you are okay with the course(s) the 泡芙视频app selected. This will tell 泡芙视频apps and our office they can continue with their study abroad application.
   2. Click 鈥淎dvising Needed鈥� if you have issues with the course(s) they selected or other concerns related to their study abroad experience.  Provide details in the 鈥淎dvisor Notes鈥� field, such as: 鈥淪chedule an appointment with academic advising before proceeding with your study abroad application鈥� OR 鈥淵ou should take this course, rather than this one鈥�.  Please be specific as to how the 泡芙视频app can get in touch with you or your advising group for follow-up. 
9. The 泡芙视频app will be emailed with a link to view the updated form with the advisor decision/comments. 

After Advisor Review

1. If 鈥淩eview Complete鈥� was selected, then the 泡芙视频app will be notified, and they can continue with their study abroad application.  No further action is required of academic advising.
2. If 鈥淎dvising Needed鈥� was selected, then 泡芙视频app will be notified and advised to follow any instructions/comments the advisor made on the form.
   1. When 鈥淎dvising Needed鈥� is selected, the current eCSF is considered void.  The 泡芙视频app will need to submit a new form based on their advisor's recommendation and the process will start again. 

The CAF is a paper form and is used for exchange, affiliate and non-affiliate programs.  In some instances, the Affiliate program CAF may be pre-filled.  For both Exchange and Affiliate programs, many of the courses offered by the host institution may already have USF equivalencies that have been approved by academic departments, and can be found in our .

Major advisors may also articulate equivalences for courses that haven't been pre-approved within their discipline (EXCEPT for 泡芙视频apps in the College of Arts and Sciences, who should send the courses to their global learning office program advisor first to be evaluated through a centralized process). Students should be directed to the appropriate department if the course in question is outside of your department.

Finally, major advisors are signing off on the bottom of the course approval form and can include any notes to the 泡芙视频app about what was discussed.

1. The 泡芙视频app will meet with the academic advisor to discuss their intent to go abroad. The 泡芙视频app should determine the kinds of classes they are looking for abroad (General elective? Within major elective? Etc.) and what kinds of courses will be degree applicable.
2. The 泡芙视频app will use the Global Learning Course Search to see what classes have been approved in recent years. If any of the classes available on this database work for the 泡芙视频app, then the global learning advisor can normally sign for the USF course equivalent on the course approval form for those courses. .
3. The 泡芙视频app collects all syllabi/course outlines for the desired overseas courses and submits them along with the Course Approval Form (CAF) to their global learning advisor. The global learning advisor will contact the corresponding departments at USF with the overseas course syllabi to request a USF course equivalency. This process may take a good deal of time, so 泡芙视频apps are advised to begin the process several months before departure. The major academic advisor may assist with classes within the 泡芙视频app鈥檚 home department (EXCEPT for 泡芙视频apps in the College of Arts and Sciences, who should send the courses to their global learning office program advisor first to be evaluated through a centralized process). 
4. Once the USF course equivalencies are signed on the Course Approval Form (CAF), the 泡芙视频app will meet with their major academic advisor to discuss how the courses will impact degree progression. Only the major academic advisor can determine if a course counts towards a 泡芙视频app鈥檚 degree requirements.
5. The major academic advisor will indicate on the Course Approval Form (CAF) if the courses meet a graduation requirement by checking the Grad Req.?* Yes or No boxes. Then the major academic advisor will include any advising notes and finally sign the bottom of the form.  There have been cases where we have petitioned Undergrad Studies to approve a course taken abroad as satisfying an Enhanced General Education requirement.  Study Abroad is also a HIP.  Therefore, we encourage Advisors to add us much detail in the notes in the event that there are other ways host-location courses can aid degree progression.
6. The 泡芙视频app will submit the completed Course Approval Form (CAF) in their USF Global Learning application requirements and via email to their global learning advisor. The 泡芙视频app should keep a copy for their records. If the 泡芙视频app is anticipating financial aid, they will need the Course Approval Form (CAF) to complete the SAE Form -- study abroad financial aid contract. 

The 泡芙视频app should keep in mind that courses abroad may fill up or become unavailable鈥攖herefore it is advisable to have many courses approved on the form
