BUS, ENGRG, EDUC, HEALTH PROFESSIONS MAJORS HAVE FEW ELECTIVES. The general education categories are very similar to the prior core categories. There are few changes from how courses satisfy core to how courses will satisfy general education. A course specific to the subject area of a student s major cannot be used to satisfy general education. There are exceptions to this rule for the quantitative literacy and science requirements for students who major in the traditional sciences (e.g., biology, chemistry, biochemistry). Also, under general education, one course cannot be used to satisfy more than one requirement, except in the case of the Mosaic requirement (see section on Mosaic requirement). Temple and CCP have signed a General Ed to General Ed Agreement. If you entered CCP Fall 1996 or after and earn an AA or AS associate degree, you qualify for this agreement. See also information on dual admission on the transfer agreement web site at www.ccp.edu/site/prospective/dual_admissions/. It is possible for a student to be eligible for dual admission without being eligible for core-to-core and vice versa. Discuss with a CCP counselor. Students not eligible for Gen Ed to Gen Ed may be eligible for the 45 + Gen Ed policy. Refer to the core/general education options guide for information on 45 + Core. Pharmacy students must satisfy the entire core/general education in any case.
