General Electives

An elective that can be chosen from any elective category is called a general elective. Depending on a student’s learning program, students may be able to choose courses within specific elective categories or they may be allowed to choose courses from any elective category. Traditional and non-traditional course work may be used to fulfill elective credit, including general elective credit, as appropriate. Electives involve a broader range of courses than general education core courses do. While some courses qualify for both categories, students are responsible for making this distinction and choosing the correct classes. Students are encouraged to consult with their advisor.
