Courses that are not already approved may count for ARMS credit. (Internships may also qualify.)

To be eligible, 50 percent of course or internship content should cover the contributions and lived experiences of African Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos/as, and/or Middle Eastern Americans.

If a student would like to attempt ARMS credit in a non-approved course, the student should notify the course instructor and ARMS
program director about their intent. Most often, the student will undertake additional research. Final approval is contingent upon satisfactory completion of the course.

For a completed non-approved course (including a course from another institution), the student should submit a syllabus, course schedule,and major assignments to the program director.
