Registration Basics and Sample Schedules
Please refer to our Registration recommendations in your Lehigh University Welcome Kit for details regarding your registration for fall. For BS in Business and Economics students, 5 to 6 courses are recommended (roughly in the range of 14 credits to 17 credits). As a first-semester student, 17 credits is the absolute maximum for which you may register in the fall.
Elective credits from outside the College of Business can come from any of the following Colleges, as long as they are open to first-year students and do not require any prerequisites (other courses that need to be successfully completed before you can register for any given course). The list of possible electives is very long and seat availabilities vary, but here are just a few examples of MANY:
Art (ART), Biological Sciences (BIOS), Earth and Environmental Science (EES), Global Studies (GS), History (HIST), International Relations (IR), Music (MUS), Religion (REL) and Languages (French, Spanish, German, Chinese, etc.) from the College of Arts and Sciences
Computer Science Engineering (CSE) from the Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science
Population Health (POPH) from the College of Health
