• All majors must still complete 9 credits of written expression. As noted above, most new COMM majors (e.g., freshmen) will fulfill these requirements with the two first-year writing seminars, and COMM 2310 their sophomore year, so the removal of this requirement will not affect their enrollment plans. • Current majors who have completed one FWS and COMM 1310 and who need 3 more credits in written expression to achieve 9 credits total can satisfy this requirement by taking COMM 2630, COMM 3600, COMM 3520, transferring AP Credit in English with a score of 4 or higher, or completing another writing course at the University (e.g., English dept.) that satisfies the CALS writing requirement. • All COMM majors who were accepted into the major prior to January 2010 and took COMM 2030, COMM 2630, COMM 3010, COMM 3520, or COMM 3600 to fulfill the advising writing/presentation requirement can still follow the requirements and count these courses toward their major. • For all new COMM majors beg
