With no AP credit, a Biology with Chemistry major, assuming writing requirements overlap, needs 2 cu Society courses, 2 cu History and Tradition courses, 2 cu Arts and Letters, and 4 cu Language -- a total of 10 cu.

 

**G/D/W/L is General, Distributional, Writing or Language requirement.  Freshmen and sophomores will be encouraged to take a non-science course in this slot.
