Your courses will be made up of:
General education
Major (and 2nd if you double)
Minor, if you take one
Certificate or other option, if you so choose

Your total required is established by the college, and the number of credits (if any) more than the total of your program is your actual electives.

To make this clear, I’ll use myself as an example.
My school requires 180 credits to graduate.
General education takes up 59 credits
My major is 54 credits
My minor is 24 credits
So I have 43 elective credits I need to add up to 180.

I hope this helps.
