Substitutions for Approved General Education Courses
Substitutions are not encouraged, and will be granted only for extraordinary circumstances. The college dean’s office approves all substitutions other than those available to learning-disabled students. Substitutions approved for learning disabled students certified by S.A.L.T or the CeDRR will first be approved by one of those offices before the college will grant the substitution. Substitutions granted by one college will be honored by the student’s subsequent colleges, if any.
Students requesting a substitution for an approved general education course, for any reason, must request and receive approval for the substitution prior to enrolling in the substitute course. Contact a college advisor for more information about the approval process.
In the absence of direct course equivalents, Arizona community college AGEC-approved courses may be substituted for UA-approved general education courses with the approval of the student’s college in advance of enrollment in the substitute course.
