Also, an elective is anything outside of your major reqs and GE that you need to take to fulfill your credit requirements. Just as a randomly chosen example, say you need 120 credits to graduate. You get 60 from your major requirements and 30 from your gen ed. You then need to take another 30 (of which you can choose, hence “elective”) to fulfill your graduation requirements. This is often where people apply for a minor.
