1The selection of a First Year Seminar is likely to fulfill requirements both for the First Year Seminar and a General Education Requirement. Thus, the First Year Seminar will not add to the total number of credits required. Talk with your advisor if you have any questions.

2Students must earn 6 credits from one humanities field: history (CH), foreign language (CF), or literature (CL). The remaining 6 credits must come from the other humanities fields, with no more than 3 credits from fine arts (CA).

3Students generally satisfy EP Level II writing (EPW) and Cultural Diversity (D) requirements through the selection of general education courses and courses in their area of focus.
