Fifteen additional English credits (five courses), with no more than two at the 200-level.  Since 372 and 472 have variable content and may be taken more than once if topics vary, after a section of one of these courses has been taken to fulfill the requirement above subsequent sections may count towards these five English courses.

Six additional credits (two courses) of  drama-related electives in the Theater Department.  These courses would have to be approved by the student’s English Department advisor, who would be a member of the Drama Concentration faculty.  Students may substitute MUSC 103 or MUSC 104 for one of these courses.
