1 Note that some colleges, schools, programs, or majors may require accelerated
Computer Proficiency certification.
2 Education majors completing a Pre-K-4 or a 5-8 license, and students
completing any other appropriate teaching licensure program, must take
MUH 2140 (4 hrs)--or, alternatively, MUH 2160 (2 hrs) + EDU 2540 (2 hrs)--for
the Fine Arts requirement. Also, BA students with a major in Music should
take MUH 2110 to fulfill the Fine Arts requirement.
3 Correspondence work in Foreign Language is not accepted as credit for
Belmont students. Also, students who have had three years or more of a
Foreign Language in high school may be ready to begin language study at
Belmont with the 2000-level courses. Incoming students with previous language
study are encouraged to consult instructors in each language to determine
specific placement.
4 Exceptions: As specified in the individual course descriptions, courses
that will not fulfil the Humanities requirements in General Education
are ENG 1000, 1010, 1100, 2100, 3010; ENL 1990, 2000, 3440, 4900; ENW
2000, 3050, 3960, 3970; PHI 1990, 2250, 2990, 3150, 3160, 3220, 3330,
3990, 4050, 4100, 4200, 4250, 4400, 4900, 4990.
5 Education students seeking K-12 licensure must take MTH 1080 if they
have a score of 25 or above on the Math ACT test; otherwise, they must
take MTH 1110 (College Algebra) to fulfill state licensure requirements.
6 BIO 1110 is an introductory course for BIO majors, BIO minors, and
pre-health students. CEM 1610 is the introductory course for chemistry
majors, minors and pre-health sciences. PHY 1100 is intended for those
with interests in sound. PHY 1110 (trigonometry-based) and PHY 2110 (calculus-based)
are introductory courses for science majors and pre-health students. CEM
1610, PHY 1110, & PHY 1120 have mathematics prerequisites.
7 If students have not met the prerequisites for one of the 4-hour Science
courses included in this catalog listing, they should postpone fulfilling
their Science requirement until Fall 2005, at which time additional Science
courses that fulfill the General Education requirements in Science will
be converted to 4-hour courses, made available to students, and added
to this list.
8 Education students seeking secondary or K-12 licensure must take PSY
1100 + a lab Science course (either a CEM, PHY, or BIO course). Alternatively,
they may take a four-hour, lab-based integrated Science course that includes
PSY. Students should consult their advisors before taking courses to meet
their Science requirements.
9 Military Science and/or Marching Band do not substitute.
