Additional Notes
- BA-ECO majors must earn a minimum GPA of 2.0 in the 36 hoursrequired for the major.
- Students are required to demonstrate intermediate-level proficiency in a language other than English. Intermediate-level proficiency is demonstrated by successful completion of a 4th semester language course (FL 1050 or 1060 or CSD 3374). A higher-level language course that requires one of these courses as a prerequisite may also be used to fulfill the requirement.
- Placement exams are required for several languages. Should a student place higher than the beginning level, any lower level requirements listed on the four year guide will need to be replaced with a free elective, to reach minimum required hours for the degree. Please consult with your advisor for more information.
- NOTE: Appalachian’s language placement test is designed for placement purposes only, and a score on this test alone is not sufficient to demonstrate intermediate-level proficiency.
- ResidencyRequirements:
- 31 hours overall must be from ASU
- 18 hoursin the major must be from ASU
- 9 hours in the minor must be from ASU
