GENERAL STUDIES, B.A.

At least nine upper division hours are required for each of the two concentrations in residence; at least a 2.5 GPA in the two concentrations; no grade less than a “C” in any course counting toward the concentrations. The Academic Catalog year designates the minimum amount of credits (typically 120) needed to earn the bachelor’s degree. However, some majors will require more than the minimum.
