SJU Cornerstone Core Curriculum

In addition to your major, all SJU students are required to complete the Cornerstone Core Curriculum program as part of their academic curriculum. 

The Cornerstone Core Curriculum (CCC) is the academic cornerstone of the Saint Joseph’s University experience, providing a distinctive liberal arts education in the Jesuit, Catholic tradition. Please see your major curriculum worksheet for more information. 

For more detailed information about the requirements, you can view an overview of the Cornerstone Core Curriculum.

Curriculum Worksheets for Major Requirements

All majors have curriculum worksheets that display the required classes you will take and a semester-by-semester break down of when you should take them.

Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, & Dual Enrollment Credits

Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate

For AP/IB credit, review the SJU AP Equivalency Chart and the SJU IB Equivalency Chart to see required scores and how credits will transfer to SJU courses.  Request that an official score report be sent to SJU.

Requesting for Dual Enrollment Credit is a 2-step process:

1. submit a Transfer Credit Request Form. Upload course description or syllabus for each course taken.  Check the External Transfer Articulation Database to see if the course you completed has previously transferred to SJU.

2. Request an official transcript from the College/University be sent to SJU. 

All questions related to AP/IB/Dual Enrollment, email admit@sju.edu.  For more information, see How to Transfer Credits to SJU as a First-Year Student
