H. All students must pass the Primary Programming Proficiency in order to graduate.

I. For any students come from 5-year Middle School(Junior High)/High School education system, must take an additional 12 credits (as total 144 credits) to graduate. These 12 credits can be from any departments.

J. In addition to this requirement, all scholarship awardees must follow the scholarship regulations and requirements to complete the degree.

K. All students admitted for Fall 2017 and after, should complete the cross-disciplinary self-learning credit certification.
