Colleges and Universities A-Z Northwestern University

<p>Do all econ majors have to take 2 courses from each of the six areas (Natural sciences, formal studies etc.)? Would a 5 in AP Physics B get me exempt from the two Natural sciences courses (if required)?</p>

<p>Also, I had an NU admitted students chat yesterday and the students there were saying that finishing undergrad in 3 years is quite possible. If I bring with me, 5 AP credits (Physics, Calc BC, Macro econ, Micro econ, and Stats), how many classes would I have to take each quarter?</p>

<p>Econ is in WCAS so yes you have distro requirements. Find the AP requirements page on the website and it will tell you what gets you out of what.</p>
