39 hours of upper level courses are required for the degree. If the upper-level major and minor courses do not add up to 39 hours,
additional upper-level courses must be taken in other areas (e.g., electives). No upper-level courses may be listed in the Core (Areas
A – F).
These notes are meant as a quick reference on a few important points concerning advisement. They are not to be taken as
complete. The ultimate source of information for students and for advisors is the NGCSU Bulletin 2010-2012. Students are
responsible for reading the catalog and planning their programs of study, aided by help from the faculty advisor.
