*All courses within the Major Program Requirements must be earned with a minimum C (2.000) grade.

**A minimum C (2.0) grade must be earned with to fulfill the writing-intensive requirement.

***Students in the science concentration should take the following two courses, a minimum C (2.000) grade must be earned in both courses:

⁺ A minimum C grade is required in both courses.

Special Major Note:
Students who pass 15 credits of non-remedial academic coursework each fall and spring semester and the 1-credit First Year Experience course will accumulate 121 credits in four years. This major requires 128 - 142 credits for graduation, depending on concentration. Students can stay on track for graduation by:

• Declaring their major as freshmen and completing all courses in sequence (bear in mind that switching majors may cause a delay in graduation);
• Prioritizing required courses above electives;
• Meeting regularly with their academic advisors to stay on track;
• Passing each required course the first time attempted and maintaining the minimal GPA for the major;
• Successfully completing more than 15 credit hours of relevant coursework (field-based work, internship) during academic semesters; and/or
• Completing relevant coursework (field-based work, internship) during summer sessions.

Licensure Requirement (not required for graduation):
Candidates seeking Ohio licensure are required to pass specific assessments in order to apply for licensure. See Ohio Department of Education-Educator Preparation website for more information on assessments specific to licensure type. Taking and passing the licensure tests prior to graduation is encouraged but not required.
