The vertical curriculum given above is suggested for students who are not required to take remedial Math, Reading or English courses (courses numbered 111 or 112). If a student is required to take one or more of these courses he/she must substitute the remedial course for the college level Math, English or Reading listed. Upon completion of remedial courses, students must then enroll in the respective college-level courses.

If a student has not taken high school chemistry or does not have a good chemistry background, he may be advised to take Introduction to Chemistry (CH 131) before attempting the General Chemistry courses. CH 131 can be used as an elective.

Specified courses offered as Physics electives may be substituted for required courses upon the approval of the Advisor.
