| 31 DEGREE REQUIREMENTS ber required in standard majors or minors at Concordia University, Ann Arbor. The following additional criteria apply: a. The quality of the proposed major or minor must be comparable to that of generally approved majors or minors; b. Two-thirds of the major and one-half of the minor must be at the upper level; c. No more than one-third of the courses offered for the major/minor may be in General Studies; d. No more than one-third of the credits may be accepted in transfer; e. Independent studies and internships are limited to forty percent of the major or minor; f. Students must take courses from more than one faculty member. Students take the initiative in designing the curriculum. They prepare a one-to-three word title and rationale for their design, with a listing of courses to be completed. The design may be disciplinary in nature, interdisciplinary, or thematic. It may stand alone as a sequence. If a minor, it may offer collateral support for a primary sequence or career goal. Students select one or more advisors and obtain approval of the division(s) involved in the major or minor upon recommendation of the advisors. The Vice President of Academics oversees the process, approves each individualized major and minor, and initiates evaluation through the Assessment Council. Degree Requirements Revisions in degree requirements and academic regulations take effect on the first day of July following their adoption by the faculty and the Board of Regents. Students at Concordia University will normally follow the degree requirements and academic regulations in effect at the time of their admission; however, a student who changes a major, minor, or program may be required to follow the requirements in effect at the time of the change. Such a decision would be based on the availability of required courses and may be appealed to the appropriate division or dean. Revised requirements by government agencies or certification associations may influence the student’s degree requirements regardless of previously stated requirements. Students are expected to read the regulations of the University and to conform to them. The student, not the University or any member of the faculty or staff, is responsible for meeting the requirements for a degree. Petition forms for the substitution or waiver of a requirement are available from the Registrar and must be approved according to the faculty policy. Registration and payment of fees imply an agreement by the student to conform to regulations of the University. Failure to meet obligations to the University, financial or otherwise, will be cause for refusal to issue a degree, transcript, and diploma. Final responsibility for meeting all graduation requirements rests with the student. Master of Science Degree (M.S.) Degree requirements are established by each area in which a graduate degree is offered. See page 107 for further details. Bachelor of Arts Degree (B.A.): Accelerated Degree Program Degree requirements are established by each area in which a bachelor’s degree is offered. See page 96 for further details. Bachelor of Arts Degree (B.A.): Traditional Programs The requirements of each major/minor/program are listed on other pages. All traditional students must complete the general studies requirements described below to earn a bachelor’s degree.

If no credit hours have been added to the student’s Concordia transcript for two or more calendar years, the student must apply (through the Office of Admission) for readmission and meet the requirements in effect at the time of readmission. 4. The student must provide the Registrar with an official transcript showing high school graduation (or an official copy of GED scores) sent directly from the high school (or testing center) to Concordia and official transcripts sent directly from any other regionally accredited colleges or universities attended by the student to Concordia. 5. An application for commencement/diploma must be filed with the Registrar in a timely manner. 6. The student must fulfill all financial obligations to the University.
