Note Regarding Petitions

If you have taken a course not listed on the Courses that Count for Concentration Credit that you want to have count for credit in your field, you should submit a petition to the Committee on Instruction.  You can also petition to count a course that you plan to take during the coming semester, or to substitute one course for another required course.  Petitions are considered on a case-by-case basis. The relevance of a course is judged in the context of an individual student's entire program. For this reason, you should never assume that you will succeed in petitioning for credit for a course that another student has had approved.

A form for petitions is available in the office.  Talk over your petition with your tutor (who must approve it first, and sign the form), and explain your reasons for why the course should count in your case as fully as you can.  Be sure to submit a copy of the course syllabus with your petition.
