Degree Planning - Choice Selection Help
#3
Thanks, but, I probably didn't explain it well - for the NCSU degree, I need to meet these requirements:
- 1 upper level British Renaissance literature class
- 1 upper level World literature class
- 1 upper level Rhetoric class
- 5 hours of interdisciplinary classes
- 1 math class (any math will do)
- 1 U.S. diversity requirement
- 1 physical fitness 1-hour class

In some cases, one class can meet multiple requirements. Using NCSU classes, it amounts to five academic classes I would need:

- Brit Lit has to be one class
- World Lit has to be one class
- Rhetoric can double as an interdisciplinary
- Jazz History can double as interdisciplinary and diversity
- Math
- And, the PE

So, that is five academic classes plus a PE.

My hope was that I could knock off most of them via UW-Flex or a similar option, and only take the literature classes at NCSU. But I learned today that NCSU will not accept the UW-Flex classes, and since I can't see any obvious reason they wouldn't take a UW-Flex Jazz History class in lieu of the NCSU Jazz History class, for example, that makes me think NCSU will not accept any self-paced classes from anywhere. So, I either need to take (at best) asynchronous classes at NCSU or take asynchronous classes somewhere else.

The one-class requirement is just the residency requirement. In theory, if I could meet all of my requirements elsewhere, I would need to take one class at NCSU in the semester I graduate simply so I am an NCSU student at the time of graduation.

I like the idea of ending up with two bachelor degrees and I've considered at least going for a business minor at NCSU; however, the residency requirement would become a complication then. I think I would need to just complete the NCSU English Lit degree first.

Thanks for the response!
