General Education 1 (GE1) (F1, H1, P1, S1, N1) Courses: 16 credits - take one course in each of the FOUR distribution areas OUTSIDE of your major.
General Education 2 (GE2) (F2, H2, P2, S2, N2) Course: 4 credits - take one upper-level course in a subject area studied at the GE1 level. For example, if you took an English course for your H1, to fulfill your GE2 with an H2 you need to take an H2 English course.
Cross-Cultural Development (CCD) Course: At least one course (a GE1, GE2 or course in the major or minor) must be designated as a CCD course.
