PSY students on a 4-year plan who begin as freshmen at EOU should take PSY 201Z, PSY 202Z, PSY 222, and PSY 223 in their first year. In the second year, they should take a 300-level PSY elective (5 credits) every term and then PSY 303 the Psychology Major (1 Credit) in the Fall of the second year. In the 3rd year, they should take a 300-level PSY elective in the Fall & Winter and a 400-level PSY elective in the Spring. STAT 327 should be taken by the Winter term of year 3. Finally, in year 4, they should take a 400 PSY elective in the Fall & Winter and the PSY capstone in the Spring.
