[Agvisors] Re: CALS Math updates request

[Tina Schuster]

Hi,

I have another question.

The new business calculus course will be Math 116.
Will majors that require UA Math 113 accept Math 116?
These courses will be duplicate credit courses, so we would
not want a student to repeat, say math 113, if the student
took Math 116.

This can be listed as a hidden option in Uaccess so that you can recommend
math 113 (or math 116) and then list the other as a hidden option so
that no one has to make an exception.

Thank you!
