- The total of upper division (300/400) course work, 30 credits, required for the B.A. in Art degree, may include subject areas outside of art.
- It is strongly recommended that intermediate drawing Art 221 be taken following the Foundation sequence (ART 121-124); repeatable for total of 9 credits.
