Note(s):
* Language Requirement: A placement exam alone cannot satisfy this requirement for most majors (see Exceptions). For more info, see the World Languages and Cultures section.
Language Credits: Four (4) credits of language are required (202 or higher for most programs; 102 or higher for selected programs). However, many students will complete up to 16 language credits. These additional credits will be applied to the General Electives block of the student’s program, if applicable.
Greek/Hebrew: One year of Greek, plus one year of Hebrew, may be taken in lieu of two years in the same language.
Exceptions: Students in the School of Business and in selected programs in the School of Education are exempt from completion of a 4-credit language course if placement scores are sufficient.
** INTL 202 satisfies the entire fine arts requirement. Other acceptable substitutions: For ART 200 (ART 301 , ART 381 , ART 382 , ART 383 , or INTL 201 ; for MUSC 200 (INTL 201 ); for THEA 200 (INTL 200 ). Theatre minors majoring in fields outside the School of the Arts may substitute THEA 101 & THEA 102 for THEA 200 .
*** Select two different 1-credit, fitness-based activity courses (see the Physical Activity Program for a list of applicable courses); one of the two MUST be a non-varsity activity. If PHED 138 is passed, successful completion of UCFH 120 satisfies this requirement. Other acceptable substitutions for one PE credit: One semester of ROTC, marching band (MUSC 1739 or MUSC 3739 ), or dance (DANC 100 , DANC 101 , DANC 102 , DANC 201 , DANC 202 , DANC 211 , DANC 212 , DANC 221 , or DANC 222 ).
Double-Dipping Note: Students may not “double-dip” by counting a course for credit in both their major and as a general education requirement, unless otherwise noted in the department section. They may, however, count a general education course towards a minor or a second major.
University Fellows Note: University Fellows students follow a unique core curriculum, but adhere to the general education requirements of the various degree programs, as necessary. See the University Fellows Program section for more information.
Study Abroad Note: Courses in London and other international settings may meet general education requirements for humanities, social science, and natural and computational science, subject to approval by the department chair of the course equivalent.
