To allow courses with grades below your minimum
The following table gives instructions for
RU exceptions,
which can be created either in EARS or from the 370 screen of the SDB.
However, if you want DARS to accept a course with a grade below the minimum for
a given requirement, use an
RR exception, available only from the 370
screen.

apply to Areas of Inquiry |

POLITICAL ECONOMICS OPTION (70-11), INTERNATIONAL SECURITY OPTION (80-11)
OVERLAP IN POL ECON WITH MAJOR: If DARS detects that more than 20/25 credits of coursework used in the major are also applying to the option, a warning will appear in the student's audit:
WARNING: The courses below total more than the 20/25 credits in the major which may also be used in the option. Please see your adviser for resolution. [All double-used courses will display below the message.]
If the student has other courses (in "Additional Political Science courses") that could be used in a major- or in an option-requirement in place of a double-counting course, you can block/remove the double-counting course from one of the two requirements in which it appears. You may just want to email DARS, telling us which course should be removed from which requirement in order to make way for another.
After the exception has been made, the warning will disapper.
NOTE: You may also force the message to disappear and be replaced by the following:
Department has approved increased overlap between the major and the option.
It's very, very easy. On the 370 screen, create an SQ exception. After you send you'll be on the SRU375. In the very first field, AC1: _, place the number 1 and send. Rerun the audit, and the warning message will be replaced.
