Description

The Gardner-Webb University faculty has taken another bold step to make a Gardner-Webb education more affordable and accessible to students. They recently approved a reduction in the number of undergraduate credit hours required for graduation from 128 to 120. This change encompasses the restructuring of the University’s general education requirements, which was announced earlier this year. The result benefits traditional undergraduate students and provides a more transfer-friendly pathway for students transitioning to Gardner- Webb from other universities. The revisions will go into effect in the 2021- 2022 academic year. Students already enrolled at Gardner-Webb may elect to apply the new requirements to their academic program.
