Specific electives are listed on the web.

The University requires all students to make at least a C- in ENG 101.

Humanities and Social Science Electives:
Please follow the university guidelines regarding the specific subsets of courses you need to take. E.g., since you are taking EC 205 as a social science elective, you may only take one more social science elective that is an EC/ARE course. One of the HSS courses needs to come from the STS lists; it should come from the HSS-perspective list.
