Dropping a GE Cluster

<p>If you drop a cluster after just one quarter, do you still waive one of the GE requirements, or is it all or nothing. I asked one of the group leaders at orientation, and they told me you do. However, reading the syllabus, it says:</p>

<p>"Upon completion of the entire year-long Cluster course, students will satisfy 2 course requirements in the Social Sciences, 1 in the Life Sciences areas of General Education (GE), as well as the Writing II requirement."</p>

<p>Which makes it sound like it is in fact all or nothing. Any one have experience with the clusters and know the answer to this?</p>

<p>It doesn’t sound like all or nothing to me. You’re just worrying.</p>

<p>You just miss out on the extra GE credit/Writing II requirement, I believe. You still get credit for whatever GE you completed (otherwise you’d be essentially taking two worthless classes your first two quarters with the cluster…)</p>
