Course Substitution

SCC will make reasonable modifications to its academic requirements, if necessary, to comply with legal requirements, ensuring that such requirements do not discriminate or have the effect of discriminating on the basis of a student's known and adequately documented disability. Requested modification should not alter essential elements of the program, licensing requirements or result in undue financial or administrative burdens.

The decision regarding whether the substitution is reasonable lies with Academic Affairs. Academic Affairs and the departments involved will determine if an appropriate substitution is possible. Students should complete the Petition for Academic Program Exceptions and Waivers form if interested in a substitution/waiver.

The student must be cognizant of the possibility that a transfer institution may not accept the course substitution.
