<p>Humanities and Social Sciences: students must complete 5 courses of three or more credits from at least four of the five following categories. No more than three of the five courses (including cross-listed courses) may be from the offerings of any one department. </p>
<p>Cultural Analysis (CA-AS)
Historical Analysis (HA-AS)
Knowledge, Cognition & Moral Reasoning (KCM-AS)
Literature & the Arts (LA-AS)
Social & Behavioral Analysis (SBA-AS)
...........................................................................</p>
<p>my question is- How do you know which category a class is considered to fall under?</p>
<p>When you look at the courses online ([Courses</a> of Study 2010-2011](<a href=“http://courses.cuinfo.cornell.edu/]Courses”>http://courses.cuinfo.cornell.edu/)) or in the Courses of Study book, classes that fulfill a requirement will be labeled as such.</p>
<p>For example, in the history department, the courses that fulfill the Historical Analysis requirement are labeled as “HA-AS”: [Courses</a> of Study 2010-2011](<a href=“http://courses.cuinfo.cornell.edu/CoScourses.php?college=AS&dept=History]Courses”>http://courses.cuinfo.cornell.edu/CoScourses.php?college=AS&dept=History)</p>
<p>Thanks so much!
So if I have AP credit for Gov, I have already fulfilled the SBA-AS requirement?
I assume this since I get credit for: GOVT 1111 Introduction to American Government and Politics (SBA-AS)</p>
<p>Unfortunately, APs can’t be used to fulfill CAS requirements. You can use your AP credit to place out of GOVT 1111 and take a higher-level class, but all CAS requirements have to be filled by CAS classes.</p>
<p>ugh. ok thanks. my ap credits haven’t been too helpfull at all</p>
<p>I should’ve added that you still get credit for them, so they can count towards the 120 credits that you need to graduate. But you’ll still need 100 credits of CAS classes, so after 20 AP credits the rest are really just extra.</p>
