Area A Essential Skills (9 hours)


Select one from the following courses:


Math and science majors are required to apply MATH 1113 or a higher level course in Area A. Majors included are Math, Computer Science, Engineering Technology, Geology, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Engineering majors are required to apply MATH 1450.

Area B Institutional Options (4 - 6 hours)


Area C Humanities/Fine Arts (6 hours)


Area D Science, Mathematics, and Technology (10 - 12 hours)
