Course Substitutions and Course Waivers

Course Substitutions and Course Waivers

Occasionally, a student may find that he/she has taken a course as part of another graduate degree program that is essentially the same as a required course in his/her current Concordia-Chicago degree/program plan. It may be possible to waive that specific course requirement, but it will be necessary to substitute another graduate-level course for the same number of credits for the one that is waived. Application for a course substitution must be made by a student through the graduate advisor. The waiver and course substitution must be approved by the appropriate program coordinator, division chair, and the Registrar.
