*   For scheduling purposes, registration in combinations of SYGN101, LIHU100 and EPIC151 will vary between the fall and spring semesters. In some cases the combinations may include taking EBGN201 in the freshman instead of the sophomore year, whereupon one of the * courses is shifted to the sophomore year. Students admitted with acceptable advanced placement credits will be registered in accordance with their advanced placement status.
