Directions for completion: For undergraduate majors or certificates (not

In the first table, please include First Year Seminar, Writing for College, and Philosophical Perspectives, but when students have choices, you should

indicate “core history,” “core literature,” or “pathway #1” etc Similarly, you may use terms like “elective.”

In the second table, please complete the schedule entirely using actual courses that would satisfy Core and elective requirements This will require you to

make choices for a hypothetical student, including picking a random pathway

In the second table, there should be no “core history” or “elective” notations, only actual courses

Additional notes:

Please complete all the columns; they are not optional

-In the LAS column, include credits for courses that are designated LA in the Marist Catalog (Credits are referred to as “three credits LA” or “three credits.”) Thus, if the course is “three credits LA,” put a 3 in the LAS column If it is “three credits” with no LA, leave the cell blank Please note you are not assigning values based merely on whether or not the course counts toward the Marist Core You are

copying the designation from the Catalog

-In the “Liberal Arts & Sciences” box at the bottom, put the sum of all your LAS columns

-A bachelor of arts degree must have at least 75% LAS credits (90 credits for a 120-credit program)

-A bachelor of science degree must have at least 50% LAS credits (60 credits for a 120-credit program)

-A BFA or BPS must have at least 25% LAS credits (30 credits for a 120-credit
