<p>Evergreen State (for the BA degree) has a completely open curriculum, with no requirements beyond 180 quarter credits of college courses and submitting an academic statement: <a href=“http://www.evergreen.edu/advising/degrees.htm”>http://www.evergreen.edu/advising/degrees.htm</a></p>
<p>There are other schools where English composition requirements are met by designated writing intensive courses in various departments, rather than specific English department courses.</p>
<p>In any case, the English composition requirements are based on the idea that students should know how to write. The lack of math requirements may indicate that the schools believe that students do not need to know math. However, statistics (based on math, of course) is very useful general knowledge, and commonly used in the social studies subjects. Perhaps that is why many colleges have algebra 2 as an entrance requirement, since that is often the prerequisite for the least-math-intensive introductory statistics course.</p>
