All bolded courses meet general education requirements.
*Students who earn an English ACT score of 27, or a written SAT score of 550, can opt out of EH 101.
**Must have one history elective and one literature elective. In addition, students must choose a second history or literature to complete a two-part sequence.
All Arts and Sciences majors require a minor between 18 and 24 hours. Courses used in a minor can also be used for general education requirements or major requirements (up to two courses).
Two designated writing (W) courses are required with at least one course chosen from offerings in the student's major or minor. Courses carrying this required credit are identified in the University
Bulletin by a (W) after the course title.
The Sample 4-year plan is designed as a guide for students preparing for their course selections. This information provides only a suggested schedule. Actual course selections should be made in
consultation with an advisor.
