For students not completing the core by August 1998, courses for core credit under the old system will be given equivalent credit under the new system. If a student has completed Area IV by August 1998, the student is given credit for Area F in the new core. If Area IV is not completed, courses taken in Area IV will count in Area F, major or cognate areas as determined by the department chair. Departments should develop conversion charts for Area F, major, cognate, and minor requirements. Checksheets for the major program of study should be used as a guide for managing student progress toward degree completion under the semester system.
Departments are responsible for developing a checksheet for each major they offer.
