These courses will carry numbers 001-049 and may not be counted toward graduation requirements. (001-049 courses are not calculated as part of any GPA. Taking such courses may also affect financial aid. Please consult the Financial Aid Office for a determination) Service courses are designed to provide offerings that do not meet traditional academic standards or are designed to meet the needs of a specific clientele and carry course numbers 050-099.

B. Upper-division courses carry numbers 300-499. These courses are designed primarily for junior and senior level students.
