Foundation Requirements
Since the foundation requirements provide a solid basis for additional core learning experiences, a firm grasp of the content in them is required. A grade of “B” or better is required to fulfill the foundation requirement. All students must take Statistics 1 (MATH 1240). However, depending on your chosen track of study, you may also be required to take Anatomy & Physiology (BIO 1810) and/or Financial Accounting (ACCT 2000). These courses may be taken at Otterbein or they may be transferred in from another accredited institution
