Notes:  The foregoing is a recommended, or suggested, sequence of courses.  Of course, if a student enters the program in the spring, or transfers credit in, the above would have to be modified. All AJS majors should be referred to the AJS Advisor as soon as possible after initial advisement.  

This degree dictates specific courses that must be taken as part to meet the General Education requirements.  Consult your catalog. All courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better--Be sure to check the catalog for other changes and requirements.
