New General Education Requirements Effective July 1

[rachel83az]

Am seriously considering switching to the new catalog. Aside from the currently-confusing "Social Sciences" requirement, the new catalog does seem to be an improvement.

Have you compared the "now" requirements with the credits you currently have and the "new" ones?  Someone mentioned the old catalog had better use of their credits and the newer catalog dropped some of their credits off to the other field.  Have you checked yours?

Yep. Aside from the ambiguous Social Sciences requirements, I'm either the same or better off under the new catalog (depends on the degree). 

From what I can tell, if you're going for a BA or a BSBA, you'll probably benefit from the new catalog. If you're getting a BS, I have no idea. I haven't checked those because you can't test out of them (for the most part).

Just rolled the dice and emailed advising about the Social Sciences requirement. Fingers crossed that they get back to me with something useful!
