question on designing UMPI BABA degree template

[bjcheung77]

To confirm, my son would need a total of 40 credit hours that meet all of the letter/number categories, but, one class can meet multiple categories...correct?

Yes the GEC requires a minimum of 40 credits. A course can be used to fill multiple areas of the GEC.

It gets confusing when COSC, UMPI, and other schools have multiple requirements and courses can complete them, people keep saying or quoting this as "double dipping". I don't, the main reason is, you still need to finish 13 courses at a minimum for the GEC. A degree has 40 courses/120 credits, just get them lined up according to the requirements...
