 (Major GPA based on all history courses taken at EIU.)

1 Required if credit not acquired for Political Science 1153G. If the Political Science course noted in the previous sentence is taken, instead of HIS 3600G, then an additional U.S. course above 3000 is required.

History majors are strongly advised to take 2000-level courses before 4000-level courses.
