What is required?

One semester of a professional-level course. 

Professional-level courses are designed by the academic departments to allow students to experience professional-level study and offer a chance to explore a particular major or field of study in the first year. Each course is taught by regular departmental faculty and thus provides a double introduction to both subject area and faculty.

When?

First year, fall or spring.

Can I test out?

No.
