B.A. in General Studies

... United States
... Elmira College

Course Overview

The General Studies major will be available to students who choose not to or cannot fulfill the requirements of a specific major and will serve in such cases as a more practical and viable alternative to the Individualized Major.

For students whose degrees will be conferred in June, the major can be declared no earlier than the Fall Term of the senior year and no later than the beginning of the Spring Term of the senior year. For students who will be graduating at a different time of the year, the Registrar will determine the correct time frame.

General Eligibility

A minimum of 36 credit hours is required, twelve or more of which must be at or above the 3000 level. Fifteen credits must be from one discipline or closely related disciplines. In addition, an intensive writing course (a previously designated WRT system) is required. A student earning a B.A. degree must have at least 90 liberal arts and science credits, and a B.S. degree must have at least 60 liberal arts and science credits.

A student interested in declaring and graduating with this major must use the General Studies Major form available in the Office of the Registrar and have an advisor's signature endorsing the choice of primary and the courses.
