If an elective course is taken to complete the UTeach program or minor, then a C or better is required.
Additional Notes
This program map illustrates appropriate coursework for completing a degree within four years, provided that course grades allow for earned credit. Please consult with your advisor to determine when courses can be switched out with others and taken in a different semester or sequence than illustrated since not all courses are taught every semester.
This map is for illustrative purposes only and does not consittute a legal contract on the part of CSU since degree requirements or course offerings could change. As always, check with your advisor.
Students must complete "Area A" (ENGL 1101 English Composition I, ENGL 1102 English Composition II, and MATH 1113 Pre-Calculusor MATH 1131 Calculus with Analytic Geometry I) prior to reaching 30 hours and earn a "C" or higher in ENGL 1101 and 1102.
As of Fall 2013, all undergraduate students are required each semester to meet the 2.0 institutional GPA standard for satisfactory academic progress.
The student needs to work with his/her advisor to choose appropriate elective courses to make sure that he/she meets the total hours required for the program (123 or 125-128 with UTeach).
