Advising Notes
Students should check with each school to ensure that the latest transfer information is used when designing their program.
Students pursuing a Bachelor's of Arts should consider completing three terms of 200-level language courses. The 100-level language courses will count as electives. The 200-level language courses will partially fulfill the arts and letters requirement.
Students pursuing a Bachelor's of Science (BS) should consider taking more math, social science, and science courses. Language is not necessary for the BS but would be valuable for students with a major or emphasis in international economics. For details, speak with an advisor.
