Students enrolling in the Alamo Colleges for the first time who have earned less than 15 college level semester credit hours must register for a Student Development course (SDEV). Select from one of the Alamo Colleges catalogs (on the left navigation bar). Student Development is a required course. If you change your schedule, you must contact the SDEV representatives at your college.
