This 4-year academic plan is designed to help freshmen entering Queens College in Fall 2023. Our 4-year academic plans are illustrative examples of integrated degree requirements and course sequencing for each of the College’s programs of study which are designed
to ensure degree completion in a timely manner. Students are advised to meet with professional and faculty advisors to tailor their degree maps to their individual interests (academic and career goals), as well as other considerations including course offerings and
the incorporation of winter and summer sessions. Course pre-requisite/s and co-requisite/s are strictly enforced, as are entrance and maintenance criteria (if applicable) for the successful completion of the degree.

• Lowest grade accepted for major? C in ACCT courses; C- in non-ACCT courses.
• In addition, all students must earn a GPA of 2.5 or higher in all courses usable for the major (i.e., accounting, economics, business, and

• A student’s ability to retake a course is limited to only two times. A student who did not earn at least the minimum grade after two such
retake attempts will be dropped from the major.
• Major GPA Requirement applies after completion of four major courses. Students must maintain the required GPA in order to
remain in the program.
• If a course grade does not meet the minimum grade requirement, students are permitted to retake the course twice.

¥ Math 122 is prerequisite for ECON 249. Accounting students can take MATH 122 with the P/NC grading policy and if a “P” is earned it would be accepted as a prerequisite for ECON 249. However, MATH 122 with a P grade will not fulfill the Pathways’ MQR requirement, pre-requisite for Calculus I (MATH 131, 141, OR 151), OR the Economics/BBA major/minor pre-calculus requirement. MATH 122 with a grade of D or better fulfills the prerequisite for ECON 249 OR if a Student is placed into Calculus (Math 131, Math 141 or Math 151), student is considered to have fulfilled the Math prerequisite
for ECON 249. However, MATH 122 with a “D” grade will not fulfil the Calculus I (MATH 131, 141, OR 151) prerequisite minimum grade require–
ments.
¥ ECON 249 is not open to students with credit for MATH 241, which will be accepted in lieu of ECON 249.
¥ Psychology 107 or Sociology 205 may not be substituted for Economics 249 except by students who have taken either course as part of a Psychology or sociology co-major.
**General Electives: Students may complete general electives by taking courses in (most) department/s or programs they choose; however, depending on the course/program, students may need department permission and/or prerequisite course/s. Electives may be used to supplement the chosen major (an English major may want to take a course in French or Italian literature) or to fulfill interest in a different area (a Music major may be interested in the physics of sound). Students are encouraged to use available electives to complete a dual major, minor, pre-requisites for graduate or professional school, or complete and internship, experiential learning and/or study abroad. Students are encouraged to use their available general electives wisely and focus on coursework that will assist them personally, academically and professionally.
