The Online Electronic Catalog (OEC) is the university's official
compilation for all curriculum. The OEC serves as the basis for
major, minor, specialization, certificate, and program requirements
for the academic year. For current policy and curriculum requirements
refer to the CWU online catalog at http://www.cwu.edu/~catalogs.
. You may choose the catalog that is appropriate for your program
requirements, based on the quarter that you were accepted into your
program. Some students may be using more than one catalog to meet
general education and major requirements.
A student should expect to meet the specific requirements of the
departments listed in the OEC that is current at the time he or
she is accepted by the department into the major or minor program.
Graduate students admitted to the master's degree program may use
the catalog they are admitted under or the current one. A student
should expect to complete general education requirements as listed
in the OEC current at the time of first enrollment at either Central
or a community college in the state of Washington provided he or
she transfers directly to CWU from the community college and has
not attended another four-year institution. |
