Pre-Meteorology
UNK Pre-Professional Programs are designed to satisfy requirements (except for
Architecture Preparation). Students who plan on transferring to a University should check
on their requirements as early as possible and visit with UNK advisors to assure the best
match between pre- and professional school programs. Refer to the General Studies program in this catalog, for the courses to
choose for Electives.
