OFFICIAL25 Why does the woman say this?

[00:00.00]NARRATOR: Listen to a conversation between a student and his academic advisor.[00:06.45]FEMALE ADVISOR: Hi, Mark. What can I do for you?[00:09.74]MALE STUDENT: I'm just filling out this approval-for-graduation form for the dean's office and,  I don't know ...I hope I'll be able to graduate next semester.[00:18.21]FEMALE ADVISOR: Well, as long as you've met the departmental requirements and you submit the form on time...you shouldn't have any problem. [00:25.83]Make sure you include all the classes you will have taken for your degree in finance...and the electives, too.[00:32.12]MALE STUDENT: Yeah, but as I looked over the form, I got confused because of the way, um, they've changed the requirements, [00:39.04] so now I'm not sure I'll qualify to graduate next semester. [00:42.52]I know I would've before, under the old requirements.[00:45.67]FEMALE ADVISOR: Well, when the business department changed the curriculum, to include more courses in international business to—well—because of the increasing globalization of business—[00:55.45]we made sure that students who had finished their second year, that is ...those who were in their third or fourth year...wouldn't be affected. [01:03.23]The new rules only apply to students in their first or second year.[01:07.31]MALE STUDENT: Huh, that's good to know. [01:08.95] Um, the department's hiring new faculty, too, I heard ...to teach some of the new courses, [01:14.99]but I want to...[01:16.99]FEMALE ADVISOR: Yes, one new faculty member has been hired. [01:20.04]She'll be teaching international banking, as a matter of fact.[01:23.19]MALE STUDENT: Actually, that's what I wanted to ask about—international banking. [01:26.87]I took International Banking 1, but I never took International Banking 2. [01:31.80] It used to be that the second semester of International Banking was an elective, but now it says it's a required class.[01:38.72]FEMALE ADVISOR: Yes, but that's one of the recent changes, so ...[01:41.96]MALE STUDENT: Oh, oh, OK. Oh, an-and I'm planning to take a management course next semester, but I don't know if it's ...if it'll count toward my major.[01:50.55]FEMALE ADVISOR: What's the course?[01:51.76]MALE STUDENT: Organizational Behavior.[01:53.42]FEMALE ADVISOR:Yes, that'll count toward your major. [01:55.88]That's a difficult class, you know, [01:58.00]but well worth it. [01:59.28]So, it looks like you'll have all the required classes you need. [02:02.71]You should be just fine—[02:04.45]Uh, I assume you've taken a seminar...
[02:08.45]MALE STUDENT: Yeah, I-I took the marketing seminar.[02:10.89]FEMALE ADVISOR: OK...you're looking good. [02:12.88]Just to be on the safe side, why don't you talk to someone in the dean's office before you give them the form?[02:19.25]MALE STUDENT: OK. So, should I just explain to them that even though one of these classes got changed from an elective to a required class, I don't have to take it?[02:27.56]FEMALE ADVISOR: Yes, you've met the requirements for graduation...[02:30.73]And if there's something I need to do, if I-if I need to write a letter, or whatever—just let me know.
[02:35.57]MALE STUDENT: OK, thanks - I'll let you know if I need that letter.
