arts and humanities
social and behavioral sciences For STEM majors, esp. placing
physical and biological sciences into higher math levelsAcademic Planning
1. STEM majors: Focus on a few core GEs and the rest on major prep.
Non-STEM majors: Focus on full GE, major prep, and electives if necessary
Note: Some STEM majors at UC Berkeley’s College of L&S recommends either IGETC or L&S GE Breath
2. Major Prep: www.assist.org (for UCs and CSUs only) – Learn how to use/read assist.org!
Explore majors / options on assist.org
Look to see what is required for your major
Look at required vs. recommended courses for major
3. Private Universities – see counselor
Tip: Take classes in common if looking at multiple universities, or focus on a primary university
and build an ed. plan around that and add secondary universities.Exploring Majors
