Course Substitution Request Form

Use this form to submit requests to have previously completed coursework evaluated for possible degree application. Be aware that there are no guarantees of a substitution approval. Submit the required documentation and await a determination from the Department. Once a course has been evaluated, it cannot be resubmitted again. Lower level courses (1000-2000 level) are unable to be substituted for advanced courses (3000-4000 level). Once a course has been evaluated, it cannot be resubmitted again.

You will need to provide at least one of the following types of documentation:

Copy of Course Syllabus (Must be from the specific semester you took the course)
Course Description (from Institution's website)
Documentation from Textbook/Professor
