IMPORTANT
TO KNOW: If a course is taken at EKU and
it is failed that course will need to be repeated and passed at EKU to fill the requirement.
Credit can not be given for passing a course elsewhere if it was failed at EKU first.
The EKU grade will ALWAYS override the other course grade.
|
EXCEPTIONS
If a requirement has been met with another course and credit
has not been given for it please speak to your advisor so an exception
form can be submitted for the proper credit.
Example of standard exceptions:
BSL110 is accepted for BIO171
BSL111 is accepted for BIO301
CLT209/211 is accepted for BIO273
Please be aware that when a course is rearticulated in the Banner
System the exception may bump out and need to be reentered.
If this
happens
please notify your advisor who will notify the Dean's office.

GENERAL EDUCATION
CERTIFIED
The differences between Associate of Science and Associate of Applied
Science Degrees.
Associate
of Science from a Kentucky Community College IS General
Education Certified because of the amount of General Education hours
required for that degree.
Associate
of Science from Eastern IS NOT General
Education Certified because they their Associate programs require
fewer General Education hours and do not meet the amount of hours
needed to be General Education Certified.
Associate
of Applied Science from the Community College IS
NOT General Education Certified. (The reason for this
is all Applied Science degrees do not require as many General
Education hours so therefore they can not be General Education
Certified.)
|
CORE CERTIFIED - means only that the one area or block of general education
is certified.
|
RESTRICTED
ELECTIVES -
They NO longer exist so
if you see any on a CARES report just e-mail Julie
Brewer in the Dean's Office with the information
(name, ID) and it will be corrected.
