- What Will You Do with an LSA Degree?
Students may count no more than 60 credits from one major (including courses and required related courses) towards the 120 credits needed for a degree. If a department offers multiple subjects (like Anthropology or Romance Languages), you can only count up to 60 credits from that department in total, not from each subject separately. The exception to this policy is if credits in excess of 60 have been used to meet the language requirement. Major courses cross-listed with another department that are not being used to fulfill major requirements may also be counted.
Similarly, students may not count more than 60 credits in any one department, including all subject areas of a department. Subject areas associated with a department are located under “Distribution Policy” on the Requirements page for each major.
