University Policies
& Guidelines

As of Fall 2020, the new Global Liberal Arts Core Curriculum (GLACC) has fully replaced the previous system of General Education (GE) requirements. Students who matriculated to AUP before Fall 2019 may follow GE or GLACC requirements. The Global Liberal Arts Core Curriculum is required for all students who matriculated to AUP in or after Fall 2019. This policy ensures consistency and clarity in terms of the articulation of each GLACC requirement in relation to other components of the AUP degree, such as the major, minor, FirstBridge, and other GLACC requirements. It outlines waiver possibilities during the transition period between General Education and Global Liberal Arts Core Curriculum as well as authorized double count between GLACC requirements and other components of the AUP degree.
