Writing Emphasis Part 2<\/h3>\n

All students fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 2 by earning a C- or better in a Writing Emphasis Part 2 designated course in their major. Only courses given at Trinity qualify. See your major advisor for more information about qualifying courses. Double majors only need to choose one major in which to fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 2. If a student fulfills Writing Emphasis Part 2 by earning a C- or better in a declared major and subsequently drops that major in favor of another one, it is not necessary for the student to fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 2 in the new major.<\/p>\n

Transfer Students<\/h3>\n

Transfer students may fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 1 with a course taken at their previous college or university, provided that they receive Trinity transfer credit for the course and the institution at which the course was taken officially designated it on the transcript (or in some other manner) as \u201cwriting intensive\u201d or the equivalent. Otherwise, transfer students are required to take one of the Writing Emphasis Part 1 courses listed above no later than their second semester at Trinity. Transfer students fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 2 by taking a designated Trinity course in their major.<\/p>\n

Individualized Degree Program<\/h3>\n

Individualized Degree Program (IDP) students fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 1 by earning a C- or better in the IDP seminar. Otherwise the IDP student must take one of the Writing Emphasis Part 1 courses listed above within the next two semesters of enrollment. In those exceptional instances when a transfer IDP student is exempted from taking the transitional seminar, and did not take a course that fulfills Writing Emphasis Part 1 at a prior institution, one of the Writing Emphasis Part 1 courses listed above must be taken within the first two semesters of enrollment at Trinity. IDP students fulfill Writing Emphasis Part 2 by taking a designated Trinity course in their major.<\/p>\n
