Writing-Intensive
Course Requirements
In order to graduate, all students must pass three writing-intensive courses after their freshman year.
Two writing-intensive courses must be in a student's major. The third can be
in any discipline. Students are advised to take one writing-intensive class each
year, beginning with the sophomore year, and to avoid “clustering” these courses
near the end of their matriculation. Transfer students need to meet with an academic
advisor to review the number of writing-intensive courses required to graduate.
A "WI" next to a course in this catalog indicates
that this course can fulfill a writing-intensive requirement. Departments will
designate specific sections of such courses as writing-intensive. Sections of
writing-intensive courses are not indicated in this catalog. Students should
check the section comments in Banner when registering. Students scheduling their
courses in Banner can also conduct a search for courses with the attribute "WI" to bring up a list of all writing-intensive courses available that term. For
more information on writing-intensive courses, see the Drexel University Writing
Program's Writing-Intensive Course page.
