Can univerisities require a general education credit if you already have your AA degree?

I just transferred in to a university after completing my generals (AA degree) at a community college. I found out after I registered for classes that the university that I am attending requires an additional credit of lifelong health and fitness/phy.ed. I was wondering if any one knows if colleges can just add an extra credit that is not normally required? I feel it is unfair that I have to waste my money and time on another gen. ed. class when I have already met the phy.ed. gen. ed. requirement.

obviously your gen ed credits didn’t tranfer to the U or you don’t have enough credits from that transfer. U’s don’t make different requirements for different people… everyone has to do the same # of credits and these credits will have to come from specific areas. If your credits didn’t transfer, you may want to discuss why and see if you can still get them to transfer. Depending how your class was categorized at the cc, it many not actually match the u’s category so it might just fall under general elective or not transfer at all. Many times credits don’t transfer the same from a cc to a U as a U’s credits transfer to another U’s. Ya it sucks!

This depends on the college. It could be that the university you transferred to requires more credits in phy.ed than your AA degree required. Chances are that the requirements are the same for you as other students but that the requirements for your AA degree were slightly different than what this particular university requries for gen.eds
