UPDATED GUIDANCE FROM NYSED REGARDING LAS/GE CREDITS - 10/2022
NYSED recently announced a policy intended to standardize the required number of Liberal Arts and Sciences (GE) credits for a particular degree when a proposed program includes more than the minimum number of required credits for the degree award. Going forward, programs will include GE credits as a proportion of the minimum required for the degree award. For example, any B.S. program needs 60 credits of GE, even if it requires more than 120 credits to complete. See the required number of GE credits for all degree types.
