Required High School Curriculum (RHSC) Deficiencies

Entering freshmen who have outstanding RHSC requirements must complete the deficient courses by the time they have earned 30 semester hours of credit. Transfer students must take these courses as soon as possible. Courses used to satisfy high school deficiencies can also be used to meet University graduation requirements.

Students who accumulate 30 or more semester hours of college-level credit in the University before completing all RHSC requirements cannot register for other courses, unless they also register for the appropriate deficiency course. 

Students may fulfill outstanding High School requirements using the following guidelines:
