Change in Mathematics Requirement for the BA Degree

Beginning with students who graduate in December 2006, students earning the Bachelor of Arts degree will be required to complete 3 semester hours of mathematics for the lower division requirement.

Students who graduate in May 2006 and August 2006 are still required to complete 6 semester hours of mathematics for the lower division requirement.

NOTE: Some departments may require more advanced mathematics courses for a particular major.
