In order to graduate with a bachelor’s degree from FIU, you must take a minimum of 2 global-learning-designated courses. A global learning course counts toward the graduation requirement only if you take it after it has been granted global learning designation.
If you have completed a global learning course, it will count towards your global learning graduation requirement only if:
- It was taken during or after the semester in which it became a global learning course, and
- It was taken at FIU
The minimum grade policy for courses to satisfy the global learning graduation requirement is D- or higher, as defined in the university academic policies. It is important to note, however, that there may be circumstances external to the global learning graduation requirement that may require you to achieve a higher grade in the course, eg. a Gordon Rule course being used to satisfy a section of the University Core Curriculum (UCC). Check with your academic advisor regarding your individual circumstance.
