NOTES:
Consult with your advisor to tailor this plan to your individual circumstances and interests.
* Take the Placement Tests as soon as possible.
** Continuing language learning is strongly recommended (and may be required if you place into Foundations I or II).
*** Take HIST 201: Historiography as soon as possible before enrolling in other 200/300 level HIST courses.
Minimum major requirement is SIX 200/300‐level HIST electives beyond HIST 201. If you continuously studied language in
your first two years, you may still need HIST electives.
(GenEd‐International Issues) is best fulfilled by completing Intermediate I Language which is part of the SSAIS School Core.
Otherwise, choose a 200/300‐level HIST course that fulfills that category.
(GenEd‐Intercultural North America) is best fulfilled by choosing a 200/300‐level HIST course that fulfills that category.
With your free electives, consider a minor or second major.
