General Education Program at WSU
Effective Fall 2024, WSU follows the KBOR system-wide General Education (GE) program
framework which is comprised of 34-35 credit hours organized in six discipline-based
"buckets" and an institutionally designed bucket. A student who satisfies all seven
buckets will complete the GE program.
The 34-35 credit hours are divided as follows:
English Discipline Area – Bucket 1:
Six hours. See specific requirements below.
Communications Discipline Area – Bucket 2:
One listed course.
Mathematics & Statistics Discipline Area – Bucket 3:
One listed course.
Natural & Physical Science Discipline Area – Bucket 4:
Four to five hours from one subject and must include a lab. Choose one of the listed
courses or course combinations.
Social & Behavioral Sciences Discipline Area – Bucket 5:
Six hours from at least two subject areas listed.
Arts & Humanities Discipline Area – Bucket 6:
Six hours from at least two subject areas listed.
Institutionally Designated Area – Bucket 7:
Students must complete six credit hours of additional general education courses in
Bucket 7. These credit hours will include three credit hours of First-Year Seminar
and three credit hours of general education of the student's choice from the approved
list of Bucket 4-7 general education courses.
Those students who have earned an Associate Degree or 30 credit hours prior to high
school graduation and before starting classes at WSU as a degree-bound student, may
be exempt from taking a First-Year Seminar course.

Program-Specific Requirements
Admission into the professional programs can be very competitive. Admission to the
university does not
guarantee admission into any program. Applicants must meet program
prerequisites and apply through the
specific program. Program prerequisites or requirements can
affect General Education course choices. Review application instructions, deadlines,
and additional
information on each program's home page.
