Explanation of Course Description Items
EAC offers over a thousand courses in forty-six subject areas. Our classes
are taught by highly qualified instructors, not teaching assistants, and classes
are small so you won't get lost in the crowd.
Sample Course Description
1. |
This is the course number. Courses numbered from 001 to 099 will
not be counted as graduation credit. Those numbered 100-199 are normally
first-year or freshman level, and those numbered 200-299 are normally
for second-year or sophomore students. |
2. |
The credit hour is the unit of credit at EAC, as at most colleges
and universities. Each credit hour represents one 50-minute class per
week per semester, plus two hours of outside preparation and/or lab
work. |
3. |
An entry here indicates that the course meets one of EAC's general
education requirements in the category shown. |
4. |
The semester offered applies only to the Thatcher campus. Classes
may also be offered in different semesters than specified depending
on student demand. Requests for classes may be made to the Academic
Deans on the Thatcher Campus. Other sites will offer and teach classes
based on student demand at those sites. We reserve the right to cancel
any class for which there is insufficient enrollment. |
5. |
This designation indicates that the credits for this course do not
count against you in an overload situation (18 or more credit hours). |
6. |
An entry here indicates that in order to succeed in this course,
you should have certain prerequisite experiences prior to taking it.
Prerequisites are checked by computer at the time of registration.
If you wish to enroll prior to receiving a grade in the prerequisite
course, enrollment is allowed but is contingent on the final grade.
If you have met the prerequisite at another institution, an official
transcript from that institution must be on file and have been evaluated
by the EAC Records and Registration Office prior to registration.
A waiver of prerequisites may be requested by petitioning the Admissions
and Academic Standards Appeals Committee. The petition process must
be completed prior to the end of registration for the course you wish
to enroll in.
Students who enter or complete a course without meeting the prerequisites
for that course may either be withdrawn from the course without a tuition
refund, or receive no credit for the course. |
