Yes, courses that fulfill a GE Explorations requirements and a major requirement will fulfill both requirements.
Yes, you can use both lower and upper division courses toward your major or minor.
While some community colleges offer direct equivalents to SDSU's major preparation (lower division) courses, do not assume that they are equivalent. You must wait until the transcript evaluators have determined transfer credit (usually during your first semester). If you cannot wait for that determination, log on to www.assist.org (the web-based clearinghouse for articulation agreements among all California institutions of higher education) to determine if agreements exist for your course.
We encourage you to study abroad. Your study abroad courses may count toward the major even if SDSU does not offer an exact equivalent. If SDSU does not offer an equivalent course, you must petition to have your study abroad course count toward the major. Save the course syllabus so you can include it in your petition.
Yes, we usually offer online, asynchronous courses, but the schedule has slightly variations each semester and not all courses are available in asynchronous format.
