In the BAAS degree program, students may take 12 hours of electives. The electives may consist of any approved UNT courses or approved transfer credits the student and advisor deem appropriate. For many BAAS students who have completed an associate's degree, elective hours consist of additional occupationally specific credits that were not applied to the student's Occupational Specialization.

In selecting electives, students should exercise caution to insure they fulfill UNT's requirement of 42 hours of advanced-level course work. Please note that a lower-level course that is determined to be equivalent to a UNT upper-slevel course does not satisfy the requirements of advanced hours.
