About the course
Students who prefer to specialize in more than one field of study may earn a B.A. degree in General Liberal Arts. Requirements for this degree include all of the following: satisfactory completion of the University General Education and College Core curriculum, satisfactory completion of the College of Arts & Sciences B.A. requirements, approval of the proposed G.L.A. program, satisfactory completion of 12 hours of upper-division courses (courses numbered 3000 and above) in each of three fields of study, all with a grade of C or better. The three fields may all be within the College of Arts & Sciences, or one of the three may be within another school/college of the University if that field is related to the student?s educational or career goals. To ensure an orderly progression of work toward the degree, interested students should meet with the program?s advisor as early as possible.
