All prerequisite course requirements must also be met.

This plan of study is subject to change when the college thinks such action is in the best interest of the student or the program. It is the responsibility of the student to meet requirements for graduation. If accepted students do not enroll for three successive semesters, they must contact the Admissions office to determine if readmission is necessary.

V.A. Students: An approval signature from the V.A. Office is required before registering. Some courses may not be certifiable.
