  GENERAL STUDIES
 
REGULATIONS

Students participating in General Studies while exploring their choice of majors are strongly advised to complete courses that meet requirements as described in Regulation J of the General Catalog. At the same time, these students are strongly advised to select elective courses that will give them exposure to various academic programs at the UI. Through satisfaction of requirements as described in Regulation J of the General Catalog, selection of elective courses offering a wide exposure to various UI programs, and utilization of career workshops, career exploration courses, and testing through the Student Counseling Center, these students can move efficiently toward a reasoned academic major and career decision. Within their first year of enrollment at the UI as a General Studies major, students are required to take a career exploration course. Particular attention is paid to identifying critical prerequisite courses so that students are able to enter a major on track for graduation. Students may transfer from General Studies to a new major at any time if they satisfy the prerequisite and grade-point requirements of that major. Students must have at least a 2.00 grade-point average to transfer into many of the university's colleges. A student ineligible to be in or continue in the College of Business and Economics may take no more than 9 credits of upper-division course work in that college (except for Bus 362, Real Property Appraisal, and Bus 364, Insurance). Students graduating in General Studies may exceed the nine-credit limitation with consent of their advisor and permission of the College of Business and Economics.
