NOTE: The specification of the domain [i.e., GE (AH), GE (SSP) and GE (MST) of the GE courses for any semester is intended
primarily to help the students keep track of the number of GE units he/she has taken in each domain. Nothing in this document
therefore prevents a student, for example, from taking a GE course in the AH or NSM domain, when the checklist provides a GE
(SSP) course for a particular year or semester, so long as the number of required GE units in each domain is complied with.
