| * It is strongly recommended by the department that students complete another Distribution Social Sciences course besides PSYC 201, 203, or 204. + HED 201 requires grade of B or better and is the only HED course that may be taken prior to major admission. All courses listed above must be passed with a C or higher for certification requirements. |
TRANSFER STUDENTS — Maximize your transfer experience: complete the boldface courses/requirements pre-transfer and satisfy the Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI) General Ed Core or receive an AA, AS, or AAT (early childhood, special ed, or math) degree from an IAI community college. If ‘Minor’ requirements are shown, discuss careful course selection with the academic advising contact listed.
