WSU Quantitative Literacy Requirement by Major
Last Updated November 3, 2009

The following table lists the quantitative literacy (QL) requirements by major. You may fulfill the QL requirement through high AP or Accuplacer scores or by completing MATH 1030, MATH 1040, MATH 1050, MATH 1080 or PHIL 2200 with a grade of "C" or better. For further questions about which QL course is most appropriate for you, please contact your major advisor.

Weber State University students who anticipate transferring to another institution within the Utah State higher education system should fulfill quantitative literacy (QL) with one of the approved Math QL courses rather than PHIL 2200, "Deductive Logic". PHIL 2200 will not be accepted in transfer as a QL course by another Utah public institution of higher education.
