Double Counting

<p>Do classes that satisfy skill AND distribution requirements count for both? For example, Great books is a humanities AND first year writing class, while classical civilization is only first year writing. If great books counts for both, I would prefer great books; if not, then classic civ. Anyone know?</p>

<p>Yes, they count as both. Great Books completes the FYW requirement and counts for humanities distribution credits. This goes for any other class that fulfills multiple requirements (Calc classes fulfilling QR/1 AND MSA distribution, etc.).</p>

<p>Let’s say you are 8 credits away from graduation and you still need to fulfill that R&E and HU requirements.</p>

<p>you could either

  1. Take a 4credit class only for R&E. Then another 4credit class only HU.
    OR alternatively
  2. Take a 4 credit class that takes care of R&E and HU together. Then take any class you want to fill the other 4 credits.</p>
