Finish in 4

Below are two recommended sequences for completing the major in four years.

Although there are no lower-division requirements for the major, lower-division preparation is highly recommended and should be wide and varied. Lower-division courses in which religion figures prominently, such as RELI 1. Introduction to Religion, will help prepare you for upper-division coursework.
