Should this be an overall good 1st and 2nd semester freshman year schedule?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Indiana University - Bloomington
1

DA to Kelley
1st semester:
Bus-A 100 first 8 weeks - 1 cr
Bus-C 104 - 3 cr
Bus-T 134 - 1 cr
Bus-X 170 - 3 cr
Mus-P 110(A&H) - 3 cr
Mus-V 101 - 2 cr
Pols-Y 100 - 3 cr
= 16 cr

2nd semester:
Bus-K 201 - 3 cr
Bus-T 175 - 1.5 cr
Bus T-144 - 1 cr
Psy-P 101(N&M - Natural Science) - 3 cr
Mus-Z 270(A&H and WC) - 3 cr
Mus-Z 280(A&H and WC) - 3 cr
(in case i do not bring in calc 1 credit) Math-M 119 - 3 cr
= 17.5 cr
By doing this, I could have my gened requirements for Kelley done by the end of freshman year.

It could be a little heavy. You need to tell us the credits you bring in. Do you have credits for ENG W131, Econ E201, Math M118? There is no need to finish all GEN ED requirement in the 1st year. And, you should explore other fields than Music.

For your 1st semester:

  1. Take a look at other posts including IUBACC’s schedule (link below)
  2. Consider replacing Mus P110 with Mus Z 280.

For planning your 1st two years, review the bulletin in the following link :

It becomes very difficult to manage a double major in Kelley from Class 2016 on due to the addition of course requirement unless you have 4-5 AP/ACP courses with credits. You can’t afford taking unnecessary courses early on. Also, there are many interesting one credit courses in SPH you can take a look.

I am bringing in Math-M 118, Eng-W 131, Econ-E 201 and E-202, and possibly Math-M 119

You have a good start. This is what I would suggest:

1st semester:
Bus-A 100 first 8 weeks - 1 cr

Bus-C 104 - 3 cr
Bus-T 134 - 1 cr (2nd 8 wks)
Bus-K 201 - 3 cr
Mus- 280(A&H) - 3 cr or Mus-V 101 - 2 cr

Pols-Y 100 - 3 cr or BUS T175
BUS G202
Note: You don’t need Pols - Y100 to meet the S&H requirement since you have E201/E202.

2nd semester:
A201
L201 or C204
X201
D270 or D271
Music (take one music course per semester if you really like it)
BUS T144

My problem with this, though, is that I am trying to get into business honors, or if i don’t make it, then just do Hutton Honors, so that I could take the honors business classes like A205, A207, and some others during sophomore year.

If you aren’t in the ACE program, your advisor will probably only let you register for 2 business classes first semester. I don’t know if the KLLC class counts as a “business” class for the limit, because I didn’t get in. That is what my advisor told me. My final schedule was

A100
K204
C106
M118
CLAS-C 101

7

Or I may take Intl-I 204 for a WC instead of Mus-Z 270 or 280

8

I thought that you could register courses yourself after you meet/discuss with your advisor. Was that changed this year?

9

I could still change if I wanted to.

10

@ace550 Yeah you’re right. If I really wanted to take 4 business classes, I guess I could have changed. I think the compass class I wanted filled up anyway though.
