Here are two typical freshman schedules. Look them over. Other students are required to complete two composition courses. The typical freshman program will consist of five or six courses, usually including an English composition course, a math course, and, perhaps, a foreign language course. The remaining two or three courses will usually be Basic Studies courses chosen on the basis of your interests or intended major.
Many students decide to take the Freshman Seminar to round off their first semester program.
You will get help from academic advisors in making your course selections. Your college schedule will be very different from your high school schedule. As you see from these two sample schedules, college courses do not usually meet every day of the week the way high school classes do. Most classes meet only two to three times a week. Even though classes meet less frequently, college students are responsible for learning much more material.
