Any other deviations from the prerequisite schedule for Chemical Engineering courses must be approved by petition to the undergraduate committee. Students must use the form on the next page, which requires approval by both the course instructor and the department undergraduate committee.
Petitions will only be approved in uncommon circumstances, such as to accommodate a co-op experience.
Poor course planning, failing/withdrawing from/incomplete prerequisite courses, not knowing or misunderstanding requirements, and other such excuses are not valid reasons for waiving prerequisites—even if graduation is delayed—and will result in denial of the waiver.
In all cases where waivers are granted, the burden is on the student to do remedial preparations for the course in question.
