Frequently Asked Questions

You should always consult your Academic Advisor for questions related to completing requirements for your degree.

A general rule of thumb for courses in Religious Studies is that most 100-level and 200-level courses count for RD credit.

Visit the University Catalog for a list of courses that satisfy the Religious Dimensions Learning Domain.

The waitlist serves as a way to order students that wish to enroll in a course that has already reached capacity. If a student currently enrolled in the course chooses to drop the course, the first student on the waitlist would then automatically be enrolled in the course (up until the Last Add Day of a given Quarter). Depending on your spot on the waitlist, you may organically be enrolled in the course due to other students dropping the course. Unfortunately, we cannot jump students at the bottom of the waitlist up to the top. This would be unfair for those students ahead on the waitlist.

The Department of Religious Studies is located at 2333 N Racine Ave. It is on the west side of the Lincoln Park Campus, across the street from the Theater School Building. Our office is opened from 9:00am-5:00pm, Monday through Friday.
