Waiving / Substituting a Nursing Course
Per Academic Regulation 108, colleges and departments may substitute or waive college-level requirements for individual students. Students may request permission to waive a course if they can document successful completion of a similar course, including providing a course syllabus or course description if syllabus is unavailable.
The level lead, or instructor if there is no lead, of the semester in which the potentially waived course will occur will do the review. They will review the syllabus of the potential course to be assured student learning outcomes were adequately covered in the completed course. The Center for Student Excellence (CSE) will also confirm that waiving the course will not affect graduation nor academic requirements.
Next, the Program Director or Associate Dean of Academic Affairs may/may not approve the waiver request based on initial review recommendation.
