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.

Minimum hours to complete Pre-Meteorology program = 62-74
