Course Type Definitions

- Equivalent courses may share the same attributes such as title, description, credit, and meeting time, but they do not necessarily share all course information.
- Graduate/Undergraduate equivalency courses are the graduate and undergraduate versions of a unique and specific course.

PLEASE NOTE: Students may not receive credit for cross-listed, equivalent or graduate/undergraduate (G/U) equivalent courses that they are registered in at the same time. If the course is not repeatable, students may not receive credit for cross-listed, equivalent or graduate/undergraduate equivalent courses taken in different semesters.
Enrollment Counts
Enrollment counts are available and easily accessible for the current semester and any previous semester back to Spring 2007. In the Web application referenced below, you can view an entire semester, a subject or a specific course. The information is available in three different formats: a PDF file, an Excel spreadsheet or HTML, depending on your preference. The Web application provides information such as the CRN, Title, Instructor(s), Credits, Maximum Count, Actual Count, and Available Count. If a course is cross-listed, please note that enrollments for each section are listed separately under the appropriate course title. The Web application pulls real time data directly from the student system enabling you to access the most current information.
