AREAS OF INQUIRY
University minimums: 10 cr in each area and a total of 66.  Not required of postbac students.
DARS tries to use course that qualify for two AOKs to the student's best advantage. Occasionally it fails, and an exception is necessary. To remove a course from an AOK so that it can count in another:

AOI ISSUES

NOTE: UPPER DIVISION COURSES will be used in "21 cr in upper division electives" in the major until that requirement is completed by other courses. If a non-AOI course is available but not being used, you can force the AOI-course out of the electives:

COURSES ELIGIBLE FOR USE IN MORE THAN ONE CATEGORY
DARS will usually adjust these courses to the student's best advantage once all courses are completed, but you may occasionally have to give it a nudge.
   (Any A&H/SSc course, for example, will stay in A&H until there are 20 other A&H credits. Students may ask you to push the course. DARS Office policy on this is, "Please be patient.")
