            Additional Information About the Program

            4 items
            1. A course in which a student earns a grade of C- or less is not acceptable as a prerequisite and may not be used to fulfill the requirements for the economics major. A course taken with the Pass/Fail option may not be used to fulfill the requirements for the major or a prerequisite in economics.
              Not resolved to a course
            2. No course for the major may be taken more than twice. For statistics and calculus courses, two attempts will be considered if students take two similar courses with different course numbers (for example, MATH 220 and MATH 224/225). Students who fail to receive a grade of C or better in two attempts at core courses will be dropped from the major.
              Not resolved to a course
            3. Students who achieve a grade of B- or better in both college-level statistics (such as MATH 147 or ECON 366), and MATH 224 and 225 may change their major to any of the BS degrees.
              Not resolved to a course
            4. College-level calculus (such as MATH 224/225 or MATH 220) and statistics (such as MATH 147) are required for an economics major. If students do not place into MATH 224, then MATH 223 and, if needed, MATH 108 are also required to complete the major. If students do not place into MATH 147, then MATH 107 is also required to complete the major.
