Writing-Intensive Course Requirements In order to graduate, all students beginning with the entering class of 2002/01 (fall, 2002) 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. |
