How do I know if a course satisfies the A&S Second Writing requirement?
A second writing course involving significant writing experience including two papers with a combined minimum of 3,000 words to be submitted for extended faculty critique of both composition and content. This course must be taken after completion of 60 credit hours. Appropriate writing courses are designated in the semester’s Registration Booklet. Please note that, not all sections of a particular course are offered as Second Writing during every semester. You MUST verify in the registration materials and the course syllabus that the section in which you are enrolled is one that will count. If it is not explicitly stated on the course description and syllabus, the course will not satisfy the requirement. Students must earn a grade of C- or better in order to count the course toward completion of the Second Writing Requirement.
