General Education Requirements

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill

<p>I will be transferring to UNC as a junior and I have been looking at the general ed requirements and it looks like quite a few of my basic studies are not matching up. Even these connections which are supposedly easy will be a pain for me. I intend to enter the business school and that plus around 6-7 general education courses is going to really mess up my plans. There is no way I will graduate on time, but I do not want to spend another 4 years! I wanted so badly to come to Carolina but this is really making me frustrateddddd. Please tell me I am missing something. I know they are for BA majors in CAS but the business school does not make any distinction other than to fill university requirements and I was also planning on double majoring with BA but so much for that. Can anyone tell me anything about this. Thanks!</p>

<p>It really depends on your gen-ed requirements. Sometimes one class can knock out 4-5 gen-ed requirements. Try to email an adviser at UNC and see what advice they can give you.</p>

<p>I was able to find a few that overlap like packerfan89 suggested and I thought I was set. Sure enough when I went to register today, two of the classes say they are open but in fact are closed. I have had to make atleast 20 calls to random departments and I was never even assigned an advisor…</p>

<p>I set up an advising appt and it was potluck, I called advising and was told when I set up the appt online based on my major and reason they will automatically choose appropriate advisors and you just choose from the list</p>

<p>Guys, can advisors override you in a class?</p>
