HELPFUL HINTS:
 
Courses taken for your major/college requirements must be SEPARATE from courses used toward satisfying the Honors College general education requirement EXCEPT in writing (RCAH 111, 112) and in the arts and humanities area (RCAH 201, 202).
The "five elective courses" required for your major are part of your major/college requirements and must be SEPARATE from courses used for general education.
Courses for an additional major or teaching minor or for a specialization MAY be used for general education, subject to adviser approval (and provided they are not already part of your major requirements).
Plan for Honors work outside your major-related areas as well as in your major.
