As students in the College of Arts and Sciences begin assessing their academic load for the fall of 2019, many will look to find courses that "double-count," or fulfill two separate College requirements: both a sector requirement and a foundational approach.
Here's a comprehensive guide to the courses that double-count, based on data from Penn's College Requirements page. Remember that advance course registration ends on March 31.
Be sure to check the policies governing double-counting before committing to a course.
