The Department of Chemistry will not grant credit for a course when considerable duplication of course content may occur with another course taken. In general, credit will be allowed for the higher-level course, but not for the lower-level course. The following listings are considered to be duplications (lower-level courses listed first):

CHEM C360 and CHEM C361
MATH 221-222 and MATH 163-164
PHYS P201-P202 or 218-219 and PHYS 152-251
PHYS 100 or 200 and PHYS P201, 218, or 152 For example, if a student has earned credit in MATH 163-164, the student will receive no credit for MATH 221-222, even if earned previously.

On occasion, a student who initially enrolled in the preprofessional B.A. in chemistry program decides to transfer to the B.S. in Chemistry program, having already taken one or more of the above-listed lower-level courses. The following policies will apply:

If a student has a minimum grade of B (B– or lower is unacceptable) in CHEM C360 and approval of the departmental chairperson, credit will be granted for CHEM C361 and the student may proceed to CHEM C362.

If a student has earned credit for the MATH 221-222 sequence, the student will be placed in MATH 164. If the student passes MATH 164, the MATH 163-164 requirement will be considered fulfilled. Credit will be granted for MATH 221 and MATH 164 only (8 credit hours). If the student does not pass MATH 164, the student must start with MATH 163.

If a student has earned credit for MATH 221 only, the student must take the MATH 163-164 sequence, and no credit will be allowed for MATH 221.

If a student has earned credit for the PHYS P201-P202 or PHYS 218-219 sequence, the student will be placed in PHYS 251. If the student passes PHYS 251, the PHYS 152-251 requirement will be considered fulfilled. Credit will be granted for PHYS P201 and PHYS 251 only (10 credit hours). If the student does not pass PHYS 251, the student must start with PHYS 152.

If a student has earned credit for PHYS P201 or PHYS 218 only, the student must take the PHYS 152-251 sequence, and no credit will be allowed for PHYS P201 or PHYS 218.

On occasion, a student who initially enrolled in the B.S. in Chemistry program decides to transfer to the preprofessional B.A. in chemistry program, having already taken one or more of the above-listed higher-level courses. A higher-level course will always substitute for a lower-level course to satisfy the requirement.

The Department of Chemistry will accept a maximum of 15 credit hours toward graduation in courses outside the Schools of Science, Liberal Arts, Business, Engineering, and Public and Environmental Affairs (e.g., technology, physical education, military science, therapy, etc.).
