General Education Guidelines

• All students must complete an approved General Education program in order to graduate from a college or university in the Oklahoma State System of Higher Education. At Southwestern Oklahoma State University, because of differing curriculum and/or accreditation requirements, some degree programs follow slightly different course sequences than the General Education requirements listed on this page. The specific General Education requirements approved for each degree program are listed with the academic requirements. • Students entering Southwestern must meet General Education requirements listed in the current catalog for graduation. (For certification and license requirements, refer to specific programs.) • Courses satisfying General Education course requirements cannot be used to satisfy requirements in the major, major/minor, and/or minor.

• Some General Education course requirements may be met via CLEP, AP, International Baccalaureate, and other advanced standing tests. • A maximum of 10 credit hours of General Education credit may be substituted through alternative courses. Any substitution of alternative courses must address all General Education outcomes indicated for the General Education course for which the substitution is requested. All alternative courses must be approved by the appropriate academic departments for course content equivalency and the General Education Committee. • Mid-level assessment is accomplished within the General Education courses. Faculty use curriculum-embedded methods such as exams, papers, projects, etc. for improvement of instruction.
