For transfer students intending to complete the Bachelor of Science degree at PLU, these guidelines assume the student has already completed 3 courses in natural science.

Since your own academic background may vary from that used in these guidelines, you may also want to refer to the typical B. A. and B. Sc. course sequences in order to tailor your own individual schedule to the graduation requirements. Please talk with any faculty member about your proposed program of study. Our departmental receptionist in Xavier 241 also has copies of the Major Milestones handout.
