Posted: Monday, April 28, 2014Intellectual Foundations Website: IF Waiver and IF 2014 Fact Sheets
IF waiver fact sheets (PDF) can be found on the Intellectual Foundations website. The IF program that was implemented in fall 2006 remains the general education program for undergraduate students entering Buffalo State who began college as freshmen (anywhere) on or after fall 2006 up to spring 2014. Students graduating in December 2014 or later will receive the IF waiver. The 3-credit Technology and Society requirement is waived. Three credits in each of the four cognate areas (Arts, Humanities, Natural Science, and Social Science) are waived. All other degree requirements for current students remain in effect for December 2014 graduation or later. These waivers are in addition to the previously granted waiver of BSC 101/301 for all students under the current Intellectual Foundations program. Students do not need to apply for the waiver. IF waivers will be reflected in Degree Works after summer 2014 graduate degrees are awarded in September 2014.
More information about IF 2014 is available on the Intellectual Foundations website.
