Where we go over what courses you should be taking your freshman year and what you should do if you've taken college courses already in high school.
Check out the newly established !
You will be permitted to enroll in the math course required by your major if you meet the following criteria.
Otherwise, you must begin at a lower level math course to prepare for the required entry-level course.
If you took AP English Language/Literature and earned at least a 3 on the AP Exam, then you will get credit for ENG 101, which is required by all majors and you will therefore be placed in ENG 102.
If your writing SAT score was >= 580 or your ACT was >= 25, then you're eligible to take ENG 102 Honors, regardless of whether you took AP English or not since you will be given credit for ENG 101, assuming you pass ENG 102 Honors.
If neither of those above 2 situations apply to you, then you must enroll in ENG 101.
If you took AP/IB/dual enrollment (DE) courses in high school, you should be able to avoid having to take some General Education classes once you get to Hampton.
Make sure that once you arrive to Hampton, you understand which classes you will still have to take after AP/IB/DE credit has been awarded to you so that you don't make the mistake of taking a class you may already have credit for.
If you have 30 credits or more transferred from those AP/IB/DE courses you took in high school by the time you get to Hampton, then you don't have to take the UNIV 101 course which is required by Hampton for all freshmen.
You are considered a sophomore at Hampton once you have >= 30 credits, a junior with >= 60 credits, and a senior with >= 90 credits. Anyone with less than 30 credits on their transcript is considered a freshman.
Refer to Section 2.1.2 - Exams for information on what credit you will get awarded for the exams you took.
