The AGEC-B requires a minimum of 35 credits (32 if FYC is met by single transfer course)*, however, the AGEC credit count within the total credits for a degree may be lower if courses are also applied toward Required Courses or Restricted Electives and the credits are counted in those areas. Credits count once toward the total for the degree.

A. Core Areas: Some courses may be met by Required Courses or Restricted Electives. Some of these courses also have Awareness Areas designations and can be used to satisfy [C], [G] and/or [H] requirement(s) as well as their respective Core Area, Required Course(s) or Restricted Elective(s). AGEC designations are subject to change. Courses may meet more than one requirement but are only counted once toward the total credits for the degree.See AGEC matrix for each course's value(s) in the semester it is taken. 35 (min.)* 1.
