Criminal Justice majors are unique in that their major requires two math classes or two four-credit science classes, not one math class and one science class or two math and two science classes.
While the MAT sequence is sufficient for graduation, students should check with the Office of Counseling and Career Services to determine if MAT 014 and a MAT or MAT 129-MAT 131 sequence are more beneficial for the purpose of transfer.

4. Science Route (prior to 2011) III
If the student wishes to take the two four-credit lab science sequence, he/she must have a lab science in high school with at least a “C” grade. Please review the Advisors’ Manual to learn how to read Colleague’s XTRI screen to determine if a student had a high school lab science with at least a “C” grade.
