How are courses chosen for concentration credit?
All Women, Gender, and Sexuality (WGS) courses automatically count for concentration credit. Other courses are selected for concentration credit by the student, in consultation with his/her advisor, in terms of their relevance to the student’s academic program. For non-WGS courses, students need permission from his/her academic advisor before receiving concentration credit. Students choose courses for concentration credit at the beginning of the semester in which the course is taught. After the end of the semester, courses cannot be added or deleted from the concentration record, except by petition in cases in which the student’s program of study changes very significantly. Upon entering Women, Gender, and Sexuality, new concentrators, with the approval of the Assistant Director of Studies, will identify those non WGS courses already taken to be counted for concentration credit.
