ACADEMICS & ADVISING

REQUIREMENTS

All Wharton single degree undergraduate students must complete a minimum of 37 course units (cus) and meet the curricular requirements described on this site and in the handbook. Students enrolled in a dual-degree or coordinated dual degree program should check with their program advisor to learn about their unique requirements. For a Wharton single degree undergraduate student, the standard course load is 4 to 5 cus per semester.

There are several requirements that you need to fulfill in order to satisfy the Wharton single degree curriculum. These requirements are clearly delineated on the curricular planning worksheet.
