ACADEMICS & ADVISING

UNDERGRADUATE CURRICULUM OVERVIEW

Undergraduates are given flexibility in their schedules to allow them to pursue academic interests within Wharton and beyond. It is important to remember that there is no standard sequence of classes. Students will have differing schedules depending on a variety of factors, including AP/IB/A-Level credits, transfer credits and study abroad courses. Enrollment in a coordinated dual-degree or dual-degree program will also affect student schedules.

Below is a sample of a typical undergraduate course sequence. Detailed information about all of the requirements is included in the handbook and on the requirements section of this website.

Please remember that this is only an example, and should not necessarily be your own course plan. It is important to meet with your academic advisor each semester to discuss your interests and academic plans.
