*Students are strongly encouraged to check with the institution to which they intend to transfer to ensure selection of an appropriate Math course.
**Consult with your advisor prior to selecting open electives. The total number of OPEN ELECTIVE credits may be less than 30 if the student completes the minimum 60 credits required for graduation. This is dependent on the number of credits taken in the 'CORE REQUIREMENTS AND SUNY GENERAL EDUCATION' section above. The credit waiver will be applied at the time of graduation certification if the 60 credit minimum has been attained. 2-3 credits of Health/Physical Education (HED, HEG, PE, PEC, PEJ, PEM, PEW, PPE) may be used in this area.
