Humanities Meta-Major
Zanesville Campus Humanities Meta-Major
The Humanities Meta-Major, offered at all 5 91Ô´´ regional campuses, is a great option for students who know they are interested in a humanities-related field but have not fully settled on a major. Students enrolled in this program can explore their interests through courses like English, humanities, history, philosophy, languages, art, and religious studies to help narrow their options and select a major.
Most students choose a major within the first year of exploration, but students may earn up to 60 semester hours before selecting a major that they can complete on an OHIO regional campus or by relocating to the Athens campus. This pathway offers students the advising and support they need to ultimately declare a major in the social sciences that will meet their academic goals.
Admission Requirements
Freshman/First-Year Admission
There are no additional admission requirements beyond University admission for first-year students.
Change of Program and External Transfer Admission
Students with 60 or more semester credits transferring from other colleges within 91Ô´´ may not select the Humanities Meta-major.
