Certain classes may require students to take particular courses prior to (prerequisite) or in conjunction with (corequisite) other classes. Students must successfully complete these courses in order to move forward in their selected program. A grade of "C" or higher is required for a prerequisite.

Some classes or programs may have more stringent prerequisite requirements and students will be notified of these requirements through course syllabi. Administrative processes, including waitlisting for some programs, may require a grade higher than a "C.”

Failure to obtain a "C" or higher in any prerequisite course will result in students being administratively dropped by the College from the course(s) that requires the prerequisite. Students are notified of this change through their Blackhawk student email. Charges on the student's account for the course(s) not yet started will be reduced to zero. Corequisite courses that are administratively dropped will be assessed the tuition associated with the drop date.
