| 2 | To avoid taking additional units, it is recommended that you meet the SF State Studies (AERM, GP, ES, SJ) requirements within your GE or major. |
| 3 | To determine the best B4 course option, students should complete the online advising activity at mathadvising.sfsu.edu. Questions? Contact Gator Smart Start. |
| 4 | Consider taking a class combined with a laboratory or a separate lab to fulfill B3 if not already satisfied. |
| 5 | Complementary Studies (12 Units) Bachelor of Arts students must complete at least 12 units of Complementary Studies outside of the primary prefix for the major. (Note: Students may not use an alternate prefix that is cross-listed with the primary prefix for the major.) Students who complete two majors or a major and a minor automatically complete the Complementary Studies requirement. Students in the Labor and Employment Studies major can count the 12 Complementary Studies units toward elective units in the major. Consult with your major advisor for assistance. |
