This Eight Semester Plan is provided as a general guideline. It DOES NOT reduce the importance of careful discussions between a student and his or her academic advisor.
Some degree requirements, such as those for upper division and liberal arts credits, may not be completely delineated in this plan. Students are responsible for reviewing their own Degree
Audit Report each semester to track their own progress toward degree requirements.
Please see additional
disclaimers and information about these Eight Semester Plans, which are currently under development.

Notes
* If the GE III ART is a hands-on, experiential course, it will count toward the CHS Arts and Recreation requirement.
** American Sign Language may be used to fulfill the Foreign Language requirements "in programs leading to careers in social services" (Advising Handbook, p. 15) by petitioning the Dean of Liberal Arts & Sciences. American Sign Language counts as a CHS cognate requirement.
*** Many DIVR courses fulfill the CHS cognate requirement and Intro to Human Services fulfills GE III DIVR.
