English (B.A.) 3-Year Plan

To stay on track with this accelerated program students must perform well each term. We recognize that this pace can increase pressure on you, and we are here to help. To support your success, we expect that you will meet with your Academic Advisor and Faculty Advisor at least one time each semester. These meetings are designed to guide you to key university resources that you can use to obtain your educational goals in three years.

This plan is an example only. Please see your advisor to develop your individualized plan. Course rotation and course offerings are subject to change based on faculty availability and enrollment minimums. At least one course used to fulfill the COLA Thematic Requirements must be from the list of approved courses meeting the Non-Western tradition. The list can be found here: College of Liberal Arts Thematic Requirements .
