Oxford Continuees

Continuees from Emory's Oxford, Georgia, campus are among our best students and we are eager to smooth the transition from Oxford to Emory College for prospective majors and minors. Although there is no single equivalent department at Oxford, students may begin their AAS coursework while at Oxford.

Several current Oxford courses help students fulfill AAS major and minor requirements and can aid undergraduates in establishing a foundation for their AAS coursework on the Atlanta campus. Below are the Oxford campus courses that fulfill certain AAS major and minor requirements.

Note: Some special topics courses also may count toward the major or minor. Additionally, some courses can count for a variety of requirements, but you only can use each course once.

CORE COURSE AVAILABLE AT OXFORD

The Emory College equivalent is AAS 262: Survey of African American Literature Since 1900. Note: Oxford students who take ENG_OX 359 fulfill the AAS literature core requirement and therefore do not need to take AAS 261 or AAS 262.Students who so choose, may take AAS 261 to fulfill the humanities requirement or one elective requirement, but may not take AAS 262.
