Do all Hunter students have to take the core requirements?
Yes. Why? Hunter College is a liberal arts school that provides students with a liberal arts education. A liberal arts education means that students are exposed to the broadest possible areas of human inquiry. Those areas include science, math, social sciences, humanities, and the arts. Hunter’s core requirements (known as the General Education Requirements or GER) are designed to help students explore each of those areas.
