IUPUI’S SPAN PROGRAM –FROM A PARENT'S
PERSPECTIVE
College Degree Requirements: Killing two birds with one
stone.
While our main objective is to help our student complete the Core
40 high school requirements, as parents you may also want to look
down the road at the requirements for a college degree. With each
college class they take, they move closer to advancing their college
standing accordingly:
0-25 credit hours = college freshman
26-55 credit hours = college sophomore
56-85 credit hours = college junior
86 + credit hours = college senior
If your child has already decided on their future college major
great-- you can look up the requirements in the IUPUI Campus
Bulletin http://bulletin.iupui.edu/ and get busy. If your child is
undecided but definitely strongest in Language Arts, you may want
to investigate the basic requirements for the School of Liberal Arts.
Possibly the most important information at this point is what
courses do not count toward a Liberal Arts degree. Under Bachelor
of Arts, General Education Requirements, Item 9, we find:
“Credit hours from the following courses will not count toward the
122 hours needed for graduation: English E010, W001, G010,
G011, G012, and G013; Mathematics M130, M131, M132, M136,
and any mathematics course lower than M118; Business C221,
C222, and C225.”
On the other hand, if math and science are definitely your child’s
stronger field, you may want to look over the School of Science’s
information, starting on page 491. You may find it of value to
examine the recommended high school curricula and test scores on
pages 491-2. And on page 493 is a discussion of the Baccalaureate
Degree general required courses. On the same page, Item 11 reads:
“The following courses do not count for any credit toward any
degree program in the School of Science: AGR 101; BIOL N120;
CSCI N100-level courses; CPT 106; all Indiana University remedial
and developmental COAS courses; EDUC U205, X100, X150, X151,
X152; ENG W001, W130; MATH M010, 001, M001, 002, 110, 111,
123, 130, 132, 136; PHYS 010; UCOL U112.
Note that CHEM C100 may count for general elective credit only if
the student has not already established credit in CHEM C101 or
CHEM C105/C106, or equivalent courses. Otherwise, CHEM C100
does not count for credit in any given degree program.”
