Prerequisites and Corequisites

Prerequisites

  • A prerequisite course is a requirement that must be fulfilled before a student may enroll in a course with listed prerequisites.
  • Students who have not satisfactorily completed a prerequisite will be denied enrollment to the course and/or will be administratively dropped from that course.
  • Students who believe they have had equivalent course work or experience may request that the prerequisite be waived by the department chair prior to registration. Proof and/or documentation of fulfilling a prerequisite must be presented to the department chair to obtain a waiver for this requirement.

Corequisites

  • A corequisite course is one that must be taken either before or at the same time as the course that requires it.
  • If a corequisite is indicated, students should enroll for both courses simultaneously.
