This Graduation Planning Strategy (GPS) outlines a sample three-year path to graduation and is valid for this catalog year only.  This plan is a recommendation, and your actual program may vary.  This suggested three-year graduation plan is not a substitute for regular academic advising appointments.

All undergraduate degree programs require at least 120 credit hours.  To graduate in three years, students must earn an average of 15-18 credit hours per regular semester (fall and spring) and 6-12 credit hours in the summer semesters.  The time it takes to complete a degree and the sequence in which courses are taken will depend on any credits transferred to WSU and your placement in math and writing.

See the Academic Catalog for a complete listing of curriculum requirements, course prerequisites, and course descriptions.  Course offerings and prerequisites are subject to change.
