Sequence of courses may be altered with advisor’s approval; a total of 128 credits are needed for graduation.
NOTE 1: Students MUST complete a minor or second major. If the minor requires more than 3-credits per class, a student does not need
as many free electives. Once the minor requirement is met, a student can fill in with free elective(s). The total credits needed by
graduation must equal 128.
NOTE 2: While either category I or III must be a Religious Studies or Philosophy course, category III and/or IV may be met already by
the student’s psychology course(s). If so, replace with free elective(s) in the paradigm.
NOTE 3: The Writing Competency Exam (WCE) must be completed and passed in the junior year; if it is not the student will be
automatically enrolled in CORE 199, a 1-credit writing course that will help improve writing skills.
NOTE 4: PSYC 410 (elective) and 322 = even-numbered year spring semester. PSYC 323 = odd-numbered year spring semester. PSYC
302 = odd-numbered year fall semester. Please plan your schedule accordingly.
NOTE 5: If your 2nd major or concentration requires an internship, it will automatically count towards this psychology requirement.
