Students must either take or test out of ENGL 050: Critical and Analytical Reading, in their first semester at Keystone College. The credits and quality points earned are included in student averages; however, these credits do not count toward fulfilling graduation requirements.

The academic advisor assists the student in planning his/her curriculum and in preregistration; however, the student is ultimately responsible for meeting the requirements of the curriculum selected. Not every course is offered every semester at every location. Course offerings are dependent on enrollment. 

Free Elective Courses:

Sufficient free electives must be taken to ensure that the student has at least 68 credits for graduation.

Footnotes:

¹Students who do not have a sufficient math background will need to take MATH 101 prior to MATH 102. These students may require an extra semester or summer session to complete this degree. Students may substitute MATH 113 or MATH 225 for MATH 102.

²Please refer to page 60 for a list of courses fulfilling the distribution requirements.

³Students must complete a minimum of 1 credit of EXPL during the summer or in their third or fourth semester.
