Transition to The New General Education Curriculum
The new general education curriculum applies to First Year students entering À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ in the fall of 2024. Students beginning at WSU prior to fall 2024 will complete the .
'Transfer Students' entering the University during the phase in of the new general education requirements will complete the same general education requirements as their peers of the same class rank. This means that during the transition time between universal implementation of the new general education model and the teaching out of the old core, incoming transfer students will be assigned the core/general education bulletin year of their cohort year. This phase-in approach to general education requirements strives to ensure students complete the same general education requirements as their peers of the same class rank. This will ensure the appropriate number and type of course offerings for students both phasing-in and phasing-out. For the purposes of this policy, 'credits transferred' refers to college credits earned after the completion of a high school diploma (therefore AP credits or credits earned as part of dual enrollment do not apply).
