Note: A minimum of 48 units must be completed to meet General Education requirements [9 units must be WI Upper Division courses]; the sum of the minimums for each section is 47 units. After completing the requirements for all sections, if fewer than 48 units have been completed then one additional G.E. course selected from any of the G.E. sections must be completed to meet the 48 unit requirement. Many students will reach 48 units by completion of a G.E. course containing extra units such as selected math, science, philosophy and foreign language courses.
