Suggested 4-year Plan

• We encourage you to select your General Education (GE) and minor/second major/Themed Inquiry/Honors program around the plan below. Once you fill your GE classes around your major classes, you will have a better idea of space remaining each semester when choosing your Exploration Focus.
• To be enrolled full time, you must take at least 12 credits a semester.
• In order to graduate within 4 years, we recommend you take 30 credits a year.
• 6 credits of electives must be added to your plan, which can be taken in any semester provided you meet the prerequisites required for the course.  We recommend discussing elective choices with your program advisor.
