Frequently Asked Questions

Pre-requisites/Co-requisites

Most courses beyond the introductory level require a degree of knowledge or preparation.  Thus, many courses not restricted may still require prior coursework to succeed.  Additionally, some courses need to be taken together in the same semester: for example, a lab to accompany a science course.  Prerequisite courses are those that prepare students for further learning in a given subject.  Co-requisite courses need to be taken the same semester.  To discover prerequisite courses or whether the course you intend to take has a co-requisite, please visit the course descriptions in the back of the General Bulletin.
