NOTE: This document was generated from the 1995-1997
UIUC Programs of Study.
Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, but be advised
that requirements may have changed since this book was published.
Errors may have also been introduced in the conversion to a WWW

confirmation from either the paper version or a live human being.
Minimum requirements for admission include 60 semester hours,
exclusive of physical education and military science, with at least a
3.0 (A = 5.0) grade-point average in the following:
- Composition I requirement:
RHET 105/RHET 108 or
SPCOM 111/SPCOM 112
- Mathematics:
MATH 112 or equivalent (to fulfill prerequisite for chemistry)
- Chemistry: 13 semester hours including:
CHEM 101-102 (or 107-108 and 108-110),
CHEM 102 (or
