* A minimum of one year of college-level
foreign language competency is required but can be waived
through demonstrating elementary-level competency in a foreign
language. If the language requirement is waived, free electives
must be substituted. Completion of intermediate-level foreign
language is recommended for transfer.
** At least three (3) credits in math, three (3) credits
in science, and three (3) additional credits in math, science,
or computer programming are required. MA106, MA107, MA109,
MA110 or MA121 will satisfy the minimum college math requirement.
MA107 and a science course with a lab are recommended for
transfer.
*** Any EN course except EN 001, EN 101, EN 102, EN 201,
or ESL courses.
**** As part of the Humanities concentration, students must
complete at least two college-level courses in the same discipline,
such as two literature courses, two fine arts courses, or
two philosophy courses. Currently, the Humanities discipline
courses include those with the prefixes CM, EN (literature),
FA, FL, HU, or PH. The two required elementary-level foreign
language courses, EN101, EN102, and EN201 do not fulfill
this requirement. Intermediate-level foreign language (two
semesters) does fulfill the requirement. Also, for the Fine
Arts (FA) discipline, at least one of the two courses must
be an art history course (FA111 or FA112).
Minimum credits required for graduation--60.
