Fall/Spring Course Offerings: Please consult with your advisor to ensure the courses are offered in the semester you intend to take them.
In Major GPA: Courses will be used for computing the "in major" GPA.
Prerequisites: Some courses on this checksheet have pre-/co-requisites. Students are required to double check course pre-/co-requisites and equivalents. Please see your advisor or consult the Undergraduate Course Catalog for more information.
Undergraduate Research: All 8 credits are not taken in one semester. They are often split among different semesters.
Upon having attempted 72 credit hours, the student will have completed
120 graduation hours are required for graduation. These credits must include the courses required for the major (see above sections). To graduate, a student must have at least a 2.0 in major GPA and overall GPA.
Students who did not successfully complete at least two years of a single foreign, classical, or sign language during high school must successfully complete six semester hours of a single foreign, classical, or sign language at the college level. Courses taken to meet this requirement do not count toward the hours required for graduation. Please consult the Undergraduate Catalog for details.
