Student Petitions
To challenge a prerequisite, the student must complete a prerequisite challenge form
and state the basis for the challenge. A committee from the Literature and Language
Arts Division will review each petition and render a decision within seven to ten
working days. It is the responsibility of the student to provide information that
supports the challenge.
