Petition for Pre-requisite/Co-Requisite Challenge
Use This Form Only:
1.
if you are petitioning a pre-requisite based on one of the six (6) criteria outlined on the other side of this
petition. This form is most commonly used for students who have not completed college coursework, but
have work or life experience that they believe is equivalent to the pre-requisite.
2.
if you are attempting to use high school coursework to meet a college course prerequisite. Example: You
want to enroll in Spanish 1B and you have completed two years of Spanish in high school. Attach a copy
of your high school transcript to verify the coursework completed.
3.
if you have written justification to support your petition. If you are challenging an English course
prerequisite, you should attach a sample of your written work.
Submit the completed petition with your supporting justification/documentation to the Admissions and Records
Office. Admissions staff will enroll you in the course and submit this form to the Department Chair for their
review. A challenge will be resolved by the appropriate staff within five (5) working days. You will only be
notified if your petition is denied and you will be dropped from the course.
Incomplete petitions will be denied.
If you need further information, please contact the counseling office at your college.
