Additional Information and Notes

* These are required support courses which may also be used to satisfy the indicated Distribution requirements. A student may choose to fulfill Distribution requirements with courses other than the ones listed, but these listed courses must still be taken.

Note: If a course is used to satisfy two or more requirements, (for example, a support course and a distribution elective), the credits are counted in only one place. Using a course to satisfy more than one requirement does not reduce the total credits required for graduation.

+ Substitute for MAT 108 may be approved by the Mathematics Department Chairperson.

† As part of the credit specified for sociology electives, it is required that at least one course be selected from each of the following areas: African-American Studies and Cultural Diversity.

Consult with the Chairperson.
