TOTAL REQUIRED FOR GRADUATION - CREDITS: 120**


**Students may complete this degree within 120 credits, but to do so they must use courses from the major to complete certain General Education requirements (e.g., BA 253, Econ 262). Using these courses to meet both major and Gen Ed requirements enables the student to complete within the 120-credit minimum. Additionally, students must be aware that the minimal requirements for this major do not fulfill the graduation requirement of 45 upper-division credits. Students must ensure that their free electives include sufficient 300- or 400-level courses to meet this requirement.

Note to transfer and former students: If you have taken any of your major requirements and received a different number of credits than listed above, you may need to complete additional major credit requirements.
