where students have the appropriate prerequisites and where the department in which the course is taught determines that the intentions of the general education requirement would be satisfied, students may request permission to substitute an upper division class for the lower division course specified in the catalog. Students are to secure written approval for such a substitution prior to taking the class. Electives Normally a student has considerable freedom in the choice of electives in addition to the biblical studies and theology, general education and major requirements. However, in addition to the note given at the end of the biblical studies and theology require- ments, the non-music major is limited to a maximum of eight units of credit in applied music (including ensembles) and the non-physical education major is limited to eight units of credit in physical education or skill courses.

Physical Education 4 activities Each student is required to complete four activities of physical education to be eligible for graduation. Selection from the fol- lowing skill classes (110, 130, 140, 150). Students may select one unit of recreation skill and one dance class to meet the general education requirement. Note: First Aid and CPR do not count as P.E. activity credit. A student may enroll for one activity and repeat once at a higher level if offered (intermediate or advanced) for general education purposes. Four units of P.E. are required containing three different activity skills, allowing one skill to be repeated at a higher level to complete the four units. Students 21 at the time of entrance to Biola are exempt from the physical education requirement. Science / Mathematics 8 units Eight units are required in science and/or mathematical sci- ences. A minimum of three units in math and three units in science is required. Computer Science 104 is the only computer science course that may be used to fulfill the final 2 units of the Science / Mathematics requirement. Biology 100 with 110 and Physical Science 101 with 102 have both been designed for the student with a limited background in science. The courses in Sci- ence / Mathematics approved for General Education credit are: Anthropology (ANTH):............................................................................ 220 Biology (BIOS):..................................................... 100, 110, 111, 120, 130, 290 Chemistry (CHEM):.................................................................... 100, 105, 112 Mathematics (MATH):. .................... 101, 102, 103, 105, 120 or 130, 190, 210 Physical Science (PHSC):... 101, 102, 103, 109, 110, 111 & 111L, 115 & 115L, 132 & 132L, 250
