Advance course registration for spring 2024 opened on Oct. 30, and many students are searching for courses that "double count" by fulfilling two separate College requirements: a Foundational Approach and a Sector Requirement. 

Courses may also be double counted between a Foundational Approach and the major, but not among two or more courses within the Foundational Approach requirement. According to the University's guidelines, Writing, Quantitative Data Analysis, Formal Reasoning and Analysis, Cross-Cultural Analysis, Cultural Diversity in the United States, and Foreign Language requirements must all be completed through separate courses.

The Daily Pennsylvanian compiled a comprehensive guide to the courses that double count, based on data provided on Path@Penn. Advance course registration ends Nov. 13.
