<p>It looks like the new rules trump Kelley’s old rules, though, of course the current Kelley website still says they have a 27 credit hour core and distribution option within the 62 credit gen ed requirement.</p>

<p>The new gen ed requirements are similar, and in some ways different from, the old ones if you use this pdf as a guide.</p>
<p><a href=“Indiana University Bloomington”>Indiana University Bloomington;
<p>Similar to old way:</p>
<p>You still need to select a minimum of two A&H classes, since none of the Icore prerequisites are A&H. You select them from this list.
[A</a> & H Courses](<a href=“http://gened.iub.edu/courses/art_humanitiescourses.html]A”>http://gened.iub.edu/courses/art_humanitiescourses.html)</p>
<p>You still need two three-hundred level COAS classes, but they can be from more than one area and, apparently, they must be approved by your advisor-- in the past they did not have to be approved.</p>
<p>International Dimension is replaced by World Languages and World Cultures. Actually looks easier to fulfill, because it includes freshman level languages. Of course, since there is no Kelley bulletin covering Fall 2011- , we can’t be sure if Kelley students still need 200- level foreign language. It must be a secret or something.
[World</a> Languages Courses](<a href=“http://gened.iub.edu/courses/worldlanguagescourses.html]World”>http://gened.iub.edu/courses/worldlanguagescourses.html)</p>
<p>Also, the list of qualifying courses in World Culture classes (classes that would probably, under the old system, double count for distribution option and International Dimension) is now there for all to see, not just in the hands of Kelley Advisors.
[World</a> Cultures Courses](<a href=“http://gened.iub.edu/courses/worldculturescourses.html]World”>http://gened.iub.edu/courses/worldculturescourses.html)</p>
<p>Still can apply to Kelley degree requirements: no more than four HPER-E classes and four credits of MUS-?; no 0-level classes count; no SLST-T 101 count.</p>
<p>Different
Only need one N&M class now-- one taken from the “Natural Sciences”, since one of finite or calculus will qualify for the Mathmatical Sciences side. These natural sciences classes are marked with an asterisk on this list.<br>

<p>This is based on the pdf file from [Degree</a> Planning Guides: Planning Tools: Academic Advising: University Division: Indiana University Bloomington](<a href=“Indiana University Bloomington”>Indiana University Bloomington) . </p>
<p>This changes would make minors much easier to get, as you have a lot of freedom to get the courses you need, including not having to spread the classes you need across the A&H, S&H, and N&M categories of the 27 credit hour core as rigidly as before. I don’t think it would make adding a non-Kelley major any easier, since the big obstacle there is getting enough COAS credits, and the number of credits needed now (122 ) isn’t any different from before.</p>
<p>Of course, the effect of all these changes is just speculation from the UD website and what people who have gone to orientation have said, since the Kelley website is completely mum on the changes, which have a practical effect on probably a couple thousand students or so. Or I am not looking in the right place for Kelley’s explanation of the possible changes.</p>
