All admitted students must officially Declare a Major by the time they reach 90 credits (junior standing).
Application for Graduation (use EagleNET) must be made at least two terms in advance of the term you expect to graduate (undergraduate and post-baccalaureate).
Use the Catalog Archives to determine two important catalog years.
SOAR calculates based on these two catalog years.
- The catalog in effect at the student's first term of current matriculation is used to determine BACR (Breadth Area Credit Requirements) and UGR (Undergraduate Graduation Requirements).
- The catalog in effect at the time the student declares a major or minor is used to determine the program requirements.
Academic Policy 303-21 4-2. Pre-University Skills Courses
- Students who are required to complete Pre-University level courses must do so prior to earning 45 credits.
- Each term the student must enroll in at least one Pre-University level course until all Pre-University requirements are complete. The student may not drop a Pre-University level course once enrolled unless permitted by an academic advisor. If a student has not yet fulfilled Pre-University requirements, the University may proactively register the student into Pre-University courses.
- Students who do not establish placement either by taking a placement exam or through coursework competed prior to attending EWU will be considered under the requirements and restrictions of this policy.
PRE-UNIVERSITY POLICY—credits earned in the following pre-university courses do NOT count toward the required 180 cumulative credits.
MTHD 101 MATHEMATICS PLACEMENT LAB
MTHD 103 BASIC ALGEBRA/COLLEGE STUDENTS
MTHD 104 INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA/COLLEGE STUDENTS
MTHD 106 ALGEBRA REASONING
MTHD 199 SPECIAL STUDIES
- Note: students who need additional math development may be required, on the basis of the EWU mathematics placement test results, to complete MTHD 103 and/or MTHD 104 and/or MTHD 106 (pre-university courses.)
- Additional course work beyond Quantitative and Symbolic Reasoning proficiency may be required to complete the major program requirements; specific mathematics requirements apply to various majors (consult an advisor when deciding which math courses to complete.)
Active Catalog Rule Chapter 4–8
- The catalog in effect at the first term of enrollment will be used to determine the general education requirements (BACR and UGR).
- A former EWU student returning (FSR) will use the general education requirements of the academic year they are returning.
- The catalog in effect at the time the student declares a major or minor will be used to determine the program requirements.
- This catalog may only be changed to a newer catalog with the approval of the department chair or program director by resubmitting the major declaration form.
- A student whose major or minor catalog has expired will be required to submit a new major declaration form; the major and minor will be updated to the catalog in effect at the time of the resubmission.
- In no case can the catalog used for the major or the minor be more than six years old.

Note: general education and university graduation requirements are waived for a student possessing a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution who wishes to obtain an additional undergraduate degree from Eastern.
All Eastern Washington University students are expected to acquire a liberal education. Eastern defines liberal education to include:
- intellectual skills and habits of mind necessary to the pursuit and transmission of knowledge;
- a broad understanding of the history, institutions and traditions that most profoundly influence our social, political, economic, aesthetic and scientific lives;
- specialized knowledge in a discipline (major).
EWU has designed the General Education Curriculum for the purpose of preparing students with the skills, habits of mind and breadth of subject matter that characterize an educated person. Through this curriculum, Eastern ensures that all students encounter the core academic disciplines, especially as they apply to major questions of our times.
Breadth Area Core Requirement (BACR)
To earn a baccalaureate degree, all students must demonstrate competency and proficiency in Breadth Area Core Requirement (BACR) courses which include analytical and critical thinking skills, information literacy, writing, communication and quantitative reasoning skills. EWU has designed the General Education BACR curriculum for the purpose of preparing students with the skills, habits of mind and breadth of subject matter that characterize an educated person. These courses are designed to provide introductory knowledge, intellectual skills and habits of thought found in the core disciplines of: humanities & arts, natural sciences, and social sciences.
The three core disciplines are
Humanities & Arts
Natural Sciences
Social Sciences
- All students without an approved Direct Transfer Agreement (DTA) degree must complete six breadth area core requirements (BACR) totaling at least 26 credits.
- A requirement can be completed by a single approved course of no fewer than 3 credits.
- Students must complete two BACR courses from each breadth area for a total of six BACR courses.
- Students should complete university competencies and proficiencies prior to completion of the BACRs.
- Individual courses may require specific prerequisites. Check the catalog course descriptions for more information.
- Individual BACR courses may be required for an intended major, students are encouraged to contact their advisor for guidance.
Academic Policy 303-21 4-4
UNIVERSITY GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS (UGR)
These requirements apply to all undergraduate students who do not have baccalaureate degrees. The requirements may be satisfied through appropriate courses at EWU or transferable equivalents.
- Diversity and Global Studies
- Foreign Language for Bachelor of Arts Candidates (only)
- Major/Minor or Certificate
- Senior Capstone
UNIVERSITY GRADUATION REQUIREMENT (UGR)
Foreign Language for Bachelor of Arts Candidates
Students pursuing a (BA) Bachelor of Arts degree must complete two years of a single language in high school or one year of a single language in college. Eastern offers these languages: American Sign Language, French, German, Japanese and Spanish. See Modern Languages.
Note:
There is no foreign language requirement for (BAB) Bachelor of Arts in Business; (BAE) Bachelor of Arts in Education; (BFA) Bachelor of Fine Arts; or (BS) Bachelor of Science.
UNIVERSITY GRADUATION REQUIREMENT (UGR)
Major/Minor or Certificate
- A minor or certificate is required for any major with fewer than 60 credits. See specific department/programs for detailed course and graduation requirements.
A certificate is a non-degree sequence, pattern or group of courses or a combination of instruction and independent study that focuses upon an area of specialized knowledge or information developed, administered and evaluated by the institution’s faculty members or by faculty-approved professionals. A certificate may include a capstone or practicum experience to facilitate the students’ ability to apply their knowledge in a variety of contexts. A certificate can be matched with a major of less than 60 credits to fulfill the requirement for a minor. The purpose of a certificate is to complement a student’s degree program just as a minor does. The certificate generally focuses on an area of study that often has an applied or practical orientation and is usually interdisciplinary in nature, thereby distinguishing it from a minor.
- All admitted students must officially Declare a Major by the time they reach 90 credits (junior standing).
