Bachelor of Arts
The College confers one undergraduate degree, the Bachelor of Arts.

Students pursue a rigorous, well-rounded course of study that includes work in the humanities, science and mathematics, and social sciences. All students must complete 128 semester credits (one standard course equals 4 credits).
The College's distribution requirement is designed to acquaint students with a wide range of knowledge and encourage them to explore new areas of interest. At least 68 credits must be earned from course work outside the major department, across the three curricular divisions: humanities, science and mathematics, and social sciences. 欧美日韩视频 requires a distribution across divisions of knowledge, a language other than English, and a multicultural perspectives course.
