GenEd Changes--Keep in Mind the Following

The recent changes to GenEd's will not affect YOUR requirements - your requirements will be the same as they were at the time you entered UMass. However, you must remember that the person sitting next to you in that PS or SBU GenEd course (for example) - or down the hall from you in your residence hall -  may have different requirements from you, depending on their semester of entry, and whether they were admitted as freshmen or transfers. Be sure to check out the GenEd website and see what specific guidelines you fall under, and remember that your ARR will always reflect the requirements for YOU, given your entry date/status and your declared major. If you have questions, contact your advisor!
