GCP Substitute Course for Transfers, Online Students
April 04, 2017
An eight-week online course, "GLBC 1210: W1: Gateway Seminar to the Global Citizenship Program in Online Environments," has been developed and will be offered for the first time Fall I in 2017.
This course addresses the same core skills (oral communication, written communication, critical thinking and integrative learning) that are components of the First Year Seminar Program. This seminar is not an option for on-campus, first semester, first year students.
Rather it will meet the degree requirement for:
- Transfer students without an Associate of Arts degree
- Fully online undergraduate students
- Undergraduate students who did not receive a passing grade in their First Year Seminar courses
