    What is a Pathway

    Your core curriculum classes are the college-level classes that everyone completes in their first and sophomore years of college. These are your foundational English, math, science and liberal arts classes.

    When you choose a pathway, you take classes related to that subject in order to complete your core curriculum requirements. This allows you to explore your interests while working toward your goal of getting a degree in a subject you are passionate about and want to have a career in.

    Once all of your pathway requirements are completed, you can earn the Associate of Arts or Science in Core Curriculum degree. You can then choose to enter the workforce, or seamlessly continue into a bachelor’s degree program at UNG.
