APPROVED FOR GENERAL EDUCATION CREDIT

OREGON EXTENSION

Note:  The OE program consists of four 3cr courses, one 4cr course, and one 1cr course for a total of 17 US semester credits.  Due to the 4.5 cap on semester credits, total credit translated from OE to St. Olaf is reduced by 0.5cr -- meaning students may earn GE and/or major/concentration credit for five out of six courses -- for 4.5 St. Olaf credits total.
