The following plan, prepared by the department, will be used to advise students regarding quarter to semester substitutions of sequence and consolidated courses. The plan is based on the following Policies and Practices for Semester Conversion Advising (Semester Conversion Committee; Faculty Senate):

• Options for meeting the No Retake Policy when students already have completed in quarters a portion of a semester course
  1. Using an All-University number, departments may allow students to enroll for variable credit to complete a portion of a semester course.
  2. Using All-University numbers, departments may design and offer appropriate transitional courses.
  3. Departments may waive portions of a sequence course requirement.
  
• This plan is subject to revision and interpretation.
  
• For substitution of courses not listed here, see the Quarter to Semester Course Substitution list
