For information on transferability of courses to other B.C. institutions, consult the B.C. Transfer Guide at bctransferguide.ca or check with the receiving institution.
Prerequisites/co-requisites are requirements needed prior to, or concurrent with, registration in a course. A prerequisite refers to a specific course (or other requirement) that must be successfully completed prior to registration. A minimum grade of C- is required.
It is understood that students may seek instructor’s written permission if they feel that their experience/knowledge is sufficient to warrant exemption from the stated prerequisite or corequisite. This written permission must be presented at the time of registration.
Even though many university-level courses have no prerequisite listed, it is expected that those enrolling have university-level reading, writing, and research skills. Students who are unsure of their ability level or want to improve their skills should consider enrolling in ENGL 099: Pre-University Composition or CSM 108: Critical Analysis and Learning, or writing the Composition Placement Test (CPT). CPT details are available through Assessment Services. For details about CSM 108 and ENGL 099, please read the course descriptions.
Unless otherwise stated, any B.C. secondary course used for program entrance requirements or course prerequisites must be completed for full value (4 credits).
If a course is given a new number, the former number is shown below the title in the course description. Retaking a course, even with its new number, is considered repeating the course. Please see this section for details on repeated courses and the effect on GPA.
