<p>Hello.</p>
<p>I'm interesting in majoring in philosophy. I was wondering what courses are mandatory for all majors. A friend told me that all undergraduates must take a language, science, math, and physical education. Is he correct?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Physical education isn’t required anymore, but everything else is. All of the general education requirements and the courses that can be used to meet them are here: [University</a> of Mary Washington | General Education Fall 2008 and Beyond](<a href=“http://www.umw.edu/registrar/degree_completion_requirem/babs_bls/general_education_fall_2001.php]University”>http://www.umw.edu/registrar/degree_completion_requirem/babs_bls/general_education_fall_2001.php)</p>
<p>Thanks for the link.</p>
<p>Do you know if the courses run for a full-year or just 1 semster?</p>
<p>Just a semester.</p>
<p>My daughter is junior at UMW and a Philosophy major. Stevensmama gave you the link to what you need to know for gen ed requirements. Feel free to ask about any philosophy classes. D is home and can answer them.</p>
<p>As far as Fredericksburg itself goes, I don’t see it as any more dangerous than other places of it’s size. Train service is available and fairly cheap if you want to do a DC internship. It seems a good number of students do that.</p>
