Question about advertising major!

Colleges and Universities A-Z Boston University
1

<p>so basically what classes are required for 1st and 2nd year. in order to major in advertising?</p>

2

<p>1st Semester: 3 CAS classes and COM 101
2nd Semester: 3 CAS classes and COM 201
3rd Semester: 3 CAS classes and COM 317
4th Semester: 3 CAS classes and COM (you have some choice here)</p>

<p>The first year is all classes with EVERYONE in COM. The second year divides up into majors...317 would be your first advertising class.</p>

<p>do i have an option to choose CAS courses that i want to take?</p>

<p>Kind of. They give you a sheet that I'll post the link to at the end of this. You have to fulfill a certain number of courses from each section to fill your CAS requirements. If you have any AP credits coming in, this is where they will come in handy. </p>

<p>basically, no one gets out of WR 100 and WR 150. The best you can do is get a 4 on the AP english lit and get out of the 2 literature requrements that follow WR 100 and WR 150. Your community college credits might go there. </p>

<p>There's a way to do a double major with CFA from COM. But you won't have to worry about that until Sophomore year.</p>
