Semester Conversion Advisement Worksheet
Core Curriculum Areas A - E
Graduation Under the Semester System

This advisement worksheet applies to students who have taken only a few quarter system courses and desire to graduate under the semester system catalog. This advisement sheet applies only to Areas A - F of the semester system core curriculum. It is not applicable to students majoring in disciplines that are math/science intensive. Students in math/science intensive disciplines should be referred to advisors in the Department of Mathematics or Department of Natural Sciences for determining appropriate courses for Area D.
