PREREQUISITES/CO-REQUISITES

Many courses listed in the class schedule will indicate suggested prerequisite, co-requisite/concurrent enrollment or recommended preparation/advisory listed after the name of the course.  These recommendations were made after careful consideration by the faculty of that department.   The Los Angeles Community College District has adopted a policy based upon a model developed by the State Chancellor’s Task Force in conjunction with the State Academic Senate and Chief Instructional Officers and based upon Title V Article 2.5 Section 55200 and Article 4 Section 55530 of the Matriculation Regulations.  In other words, your success is our primary goal.

 

Challenge Process

Prerequisites, co-requisites/concurrent enrollment requirements must be followed (for definitions of these terms, see below). If you do not agree with the requirement made by the faculty, you have the right to challenge. Contact the Matriculation Department in Building “C” Room 107 for the challenge process procedures and form. Once a challenge form is submitted, the committee will review your request and documentation. You will be notified within five (5) working days of the final decision.

Recommended Preparation/Advisories

Recommended preparation advisories are classes or skills you are advised to have.

 

Co-requisite/Concurrent Enrollment

This is a faculty requirement of a class that must be taken simultaneously with another class to maximize your success.

 

Prerequisites

There are classes or skills you must complete with a grade of "C" or better prior to enrolling in the class. The faculty for the discipline made these requirements because they feel it is necessary for successful completion of the course.

 

Conditional Enrollment

Students may conditionally enroll in a course for the next semester/term while currently enrolled in the prerequisite course.  Students who do not successfully pass (with a grade of "C" or better) the prerequisite course, they will be administratively excluded/dropped from the advanced course.
