Welcome to the College of General
Studies!The College of General Studies is located in
North Medary Commons on the west side of
campus. The College of General Studies
assists students who are unsure of which
major they would like to choose. As an un-
declared student, you will choose classes required of all students – core classes – as well as courses for career and major exploration. The Career Planning course (GS 101) is strongly recommended. It is generally expected that students will be ready within 2 semesters to declare their major.The College of General Studies also administers many of the pre-professional programs at SDSU: Medicine, Physician’s Assistant, Dentistry, Optometry, Chiropractic Medicine, Law, Ministry, and Mortuary Science. Students in pre-professional programs will also declare a major in an area compatible with their professional objectives.
In addition, the College of General Studies offers three degrees. They are: Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies; Associate of Arts Degree in General Studies; and Bachelor of Applied Technical Science.
