College Requirements:
College Breadth Requirements:
The College Breadth requirements are in addition to the University Breadth requirement. Up to three credits from each of the University Breadth Requirement categories may be used to simultaneously satisfy these College of Arts and Sciences Breadth Requirements. Minimum grade C- required for courses used to satisfy College Breadth.
*If the grade earned is sufficient, a course may be applied toward more than one requirement (e.g., breadth and major requirements), but the credits are counted only once toward the total credits for graduation. If all but one course in a group has been taken in one department or program, a course cross-listed with that program will not satisfy the distribution requirement.
Foreign Language:
- Completion of the intermediate-level course (107 or 202) in an ancient or modern language with minimum grades of D-.
- The number of credits (0-12) needed and initial placement will depend on the number of years of high school study of foreign language.
- Students with four or more years of high school work in a single foreign language, or who have gained proficiency in a foreign language by other means, may attempt to fulfill the requirement in that language by taking an exemption examination through the Languages, Literatures and Cultures Department.

Notes:
Many courses in the English Ed. major require field placements, and we recommend that students not take more than one course requiring a field placement during the same semester.
*ENGL295 requires a field placement and should be taken in the spring of freshman or sophomore year.
*Both EDUC 413 and EDUC 419 require a field placement and should be taken before junior year (and not at the same time), to avoid conflict with junior methods courses.
*Our junior methods courses are ENGL395 and EDUC422 (fall semester) and ENGL396 and EDUC/ENGL403 (spring semester), and they share one field experience.
*To be eligible to take ENGL 491, in which the student teaching field placement begins, students must pass teacher competency tests as established by the University Council on Teacher Education.
*To be eligible to student teach, students must have a GPA of 3.0 in the major and an overall GPA of 2.75. Students must consult with the Student Teaching Coordinator to obtain the student teaching application and other information concerning student teaching policies.
* ENGL 491 and 492 are methods courses and do not count toward the 45-credit limit on ENGL courses. Electives:
After required courses are completed, sufficient elective credits must be taken to meet the minimum credit requirement for the degree.
