Outside Concentration: 12 upper division
units |
| Since it is desirable for a
professional writer to work from a broad background of
knowledge, the creative writing student is required to take an
outside concentration of twelve upper-division units, in
addition to the thirty-six units of the sequence. The
outside concentration may be taken in such complementary areas
as English literature, journalism, theatre, biology, economics,
or business. |

complete these courses, if possible, as well as the recommended
general education courses during their freshman year.
