Transfer Students: Please be aware that when you see courses on your GT record that are listed with an "X" in the number (ECON 3XXX or JAPN 10X2, for example) it means that these are transfer courses and although there were not equated exactly with a GT course, they may have been accepted to meet a Core area such as Humanities and Social Science.
