Notes
All baccalaureate degree students must fulfill university graduation requirements, including a minimum of 120 credit hours, with at least 45 credit hours in upper-division courses. https://catalog.asu.edu/undergraduatereq
All undergraduate students must complete General Studies requirements. https://catalog.asu.edu/ug_gsr
Mathematics Placement Assessment score determines placement in first mathematics course.
Students should work with their academic advisor, and consider course prerequisites, in order to complete all degree requirements in four years.
Certain 300 and 400 level (Junior and Senior) courses are only offered once per year. Please consult with your academic advisor to ensure accurate sequencing of requirements.
General Studies designations listed next to courses were valid for the 2025 - 2026 academic year. Please refer to the course catalog for current General Studies designations at time of class registration. General Studies credit is applied according to the designation the course carries at the time the class is taken.
