1 | ENG 114 can only be taken if you complete Directed Self-Placement (DSP) and select ENG 114; if you choose ENG 104/ENG 105 through DSP you will satisfy A2 upon successful completion of ENG 105 in the second semester; multilingual students may be advised into alternative English courses. |
2 | To determine the best B4 course option, students should complete the online advising activity at mathadvising.sfsu.edu. Questions? Contact Gator Smart Start. |
3 | 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. |
4 | Consider taking a class combined with a laboratory or a separate lab to fulfill B3 if not already satisfied. |
5 | Complementary Studies Students in the B.A. Math program will satisfy the Complementary Studies requirement with the completion of courses satisfying the General Education B1 Physical Science requirement, the General Education B2 Life Science requirement, the Upper-Division General Education UD-B (Physical and/or Life Sciences) requirement, and the computer programming course required for the major. |
6 | Concentration Electives (15 units) Five MATH courses numbered 300 or above except MATH 375, MATH 475, and MATH 565. |
± | Given catalog rights, fall 2022 transfer students do not need to complete an Area F course. |
