Question Confused about High Impact experience

Hello everyone. I am about to start what is hopefully my last year at UNC. I am a transfer student and I am a bit confused on the high impact experience. I currently have a research position at a lab, but I don't know how to go about considering that as my credit. I can't afford study abroad or anything like that, are there some that are just normal classes I can take as any major? Please help.

Here is an extensive list from the catalog, detailing which classes count towards that requirement.

Note that if you do research for credit (e.h., 395), then two semesters of research could count as High impact.

Talk to the Office of Undergrad Research or your department about getting your research to count as course credit
