Design (DES)

• The Roski School of Art and Design wants to accommodate as many majors, minors, and non-majors as possible in its classes. For departmental clearances, please read and follow the d-clearance directions found in the Student Resources section of the Roski website: roski.usc.edu/resources/student. Remember, a section of a course only requires D-clearance if there is a "D" following the section number. A section with an "R" following the section number does not require D-clearance.
