As students in the College of Arts and Sciences begin assessing their academic load for the spring of 2018, many will look to find courses that "double-count," or fulfill two separate College requirements: both a sector requirement and a foundational approach course.
Here's a comprehensive guide to the courses that double-count, based on data from Penn's College Requirements page and PennCourseReview.
Be sure to check the policies governing double-counting before committing to a course.
