College/ Program Notes:
The plan above is a suggested guide to ensure that all General Education, College, University, and Major requirements are met within 4 years of study. Students may deviate from the suggested placement of Gen Ed courses,
although the M/QL and W/C requirements should be completed during the first year of study.
*Electives ensure that a student accumulates the minimum credit hour totals needed for graduation. Students must have a minimum of 128 total credit hours, of which a minimum of 42 credit hours must be upper division
(300 or 400-level courses). Depending upon other elective choices made (3 credit hour vs. 4 credit hour courses), students may not need as many general electives as indicated above, or may need additional electives.
** Biology majors must complete two of the following three courses: BIO 300/301, BIO 302/303, BIO 304/305;AND must complete two of the following three courses: BIO 306, BIO 308/309, BIO 310/311
*** Refer to the Undergraduate Catalog for information regarding which courses are eligible to be used as biology electives

**3 years of study at Cleveland State is followed by 1 year of clinical laboratory training in an affiliated school of medical technology. Students do not enroll at Cleveland State during their 4th year and instead enroll at the
school of medical technology (note – students are not eligible for financial aid from Cleveland State during this clinical year). After completion of the 4th year, 32 credit hours are transferred back to Cleveland State and
are counted toward the degree. The letter grades earned during the internship appear on the student's records, but are not included in the computation of the grade-point average.

College/ Program Notes:
The plan above is a suggested guide to ensure that all General Education, College, University, and Major requirements are met within 4 years of study. Students may deviate from the suggested placement of Gen Ed courses,
although the M/QL and W/C requirements should be completed during the first year of study.
*Electives ensure that a student accumulates the minimum credit hour totals needed for graduation. Students must have a minimum of 128 total credit hours, of which a minimum of 42 credit hours must be upper division
(300 or 400-level courses). Depending upon other elective choices made (3 credit hour vs. 4 credit hour courses), students may not need as many general electives as indicated above, or may need additional electives.
University Notes:
Gen Ed Key:
SS = Social Sciences (two courses, one of which must be focused outside the US**)
INTRO = Introduction to University Life (one course)
A&H = Arts & Humanities (two courses, one must be focused outside the US**)
