Pre-requisites and Registration Errors

The most common registration errors are the “Pre-requisite/Test score error”. All course descriptions, which include any course prerequisites, are located in the back of the Academic Catalog. The Pre-requisite Sheet lists all business courses and when the courses are offered; this sheet or the catalog should be checked to verify that the student has met the course requirements.

The second most common registration is “Class Restriction”. Students must be Juniors (60 or more earned hours) to take upper division (the course numbers begin with a 3 or 4, e.g. MGNT 3165) business classes. COBA does allow for 2 exceptions and students meeting either one must contact COBA Student Services to be registered for the classes. Those exceptions are: have 59 earned hours, which signifies the completion of Sophomore year; have between 42 and 58 earned hours and have completed the business Area F (BUSA 1103, 2105 and 2106; ACCT 2101 and 2102; and ECON 2106).
