Common Professional Component (CPC) Courses 

These are similar courses that may be found at the Undergraduate and Graduate levels.  A student may shorten a Graduate program’s prerequisites by achieving a certain level of academic success in these CPC courses.  CPC policy allows a Graduate-level prerequisite to be waived if the student has completed an Undergraduate-level equivalent course during their Undergraduate program with a grade of ‘B’ or better; however, if a Graduate student has not previously completed the Undergraduate equivalent course, then the student is required to take the specified Graduate-level prerequisite.
