FREE ELECTIVE

A free elective is any credit bearing course (as in not audit) that Tech offers, from Accounting to Wolof. Therefore, a student can look at oscar.gatech.edu and register for anything and have it count as a free elective (provided they meet the registration criteria for the course). Many students will have surplus credits in the fallthrough area of their degreeworks, and this can be applied to their free elective credit should the need arise. Students may also have extra credits in areas like humanities or Calc 3 (taking Math 2551 instead of 2550) that can also be applied to free elective.
