1The following
plan of study is the standard curriculum for the above program. Any
deviation from the prescribed curriculum must have approval in advance.
All prerequisite course requirements must also be met. To graduate the
student must successfully complete all the required courses, the required
credit hours for electives, and have at least a 2.0 overall grade point
average. This plan of study is subject to change when the college thinks
such action is in the best interest of the student or the program. It
is the responsibility of the student to meet requirements for graduation.
If accepted students do not enroll for three successive semesters, they
must contact the Admissions office to determine if readmission is necessary.
V.A. Students: An approval signature from the V.A.
Office is required before registering. Some courses may not be certifiable.
