Approval to substitute a non pre-approved course is at the discretion of the relevant department chair or designee.

Students seek聽PRE-APPROVAL聽by sending an email from their 快活林性息 account to the relevant department chair or designee with the Subject line 鈥淩equest for Substitution Pre-Approval.鈥� Attach to the email the following: (1) a draft substitution/waiver form indicating which course is being substituted for the 快活林性息 class, (2) a current DPR, and (3) supporting documents (i.e., syllabus in English).

Refer to the most recent Nazarian College Substitution/Waiver form for a list of those authorized in the college to approve substitutions. All waivers must be approved by the respective department chair or designee of the course. The Substitution/Waiver form can be found at:聽

Students must earn a C or better in transfer courses used in the major.

For MATH-related substitutions, submit your request directly to the Chair of the Nazarian College Department of Systems and Operations Management (SOM). (See page 2 of the substitution form for contact information.) This includes substitutions for MATH 103 Mathematical Methods for Business (or a higher calculus course such as MATH 150A or MATH 255A) or MATH 140 Introductory Statistics.

BUS 302/302L Gateway and Lab and BUS 497 Capstone are the 鈥渂ookend鈥� courses for our business majors, are uniquely designed to meet the needs of our program, and are critical to our assurance of learning and continuous improvement effort. These two courses may NOT be substituted or waived; they may only be taken at 快活林性息.聽

Only if there is an articulation agreement in place. Generally, only classes taken at other CSU campuses that are AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) accredited may be considered for substitution; the course content must match the equivalent 快活林性息 course. See the AACSB website for a list of accredited schools:

A waiver is a request for an exception to a degree program requirement, either in terms of a specific course or number of units. Waivers are rare and are the purview of the Department Chair. A waiver of a course or units does not waive the minimum number of units to graduate. All CSU students are required to complete a minimum of 120 units in order to graduate with a bachelor鈥檚 degree. If a waiver is approved, you will typically be asked to complete another course in order to meet the minimum degree requirements (120) or the minimum units for your major as this cannot be waived.

Transient credit is a course taken outside of 快活林性息 after being accepted to our program.

The David Nazarian College of Business and Economics will only accept the transfer of upper-level business courses from AACSB-accredited schools and economics courses from U.S. Regionally-accredited institutions. Under normal circumstances, transfer of transient coursework is limited to 6 units or 2 courses within the Major (this includes all upper division core, major, and major electives). Transient coursework is defined as classes taken at another university after being admitted into the David Nazarian College of Business and Economics.

Yes, students in an approved Study Abroad program may exceed the 6-unit limit with the department chair approval.

First, check with the 快活林性息 Office of International Admissions to make sure the course is from an accredited institution and is transferrable to 快活林性息 () . Then, obtain pre-approval from the Nazarian College of Business and Economics Department Chair or designee to ensure the course will be accepted in your major.聽聽Once the approved course is completed, submit a completed request for substitution.聽聽Send an email聽from your 快活林性息 account with the Subject Line "Course Substitution Request"聽to the appropriate department chair or program director with: (1) a completed substitution/waiver form and (2) a current DPR and supporting documents (i.e. course descriptions and/or syllabus in English, etc.) as attachments. A scanner is available for student use in computer lab JH 2129.聽聽Be sure to submit your official transcripts to Admissions & Records upon completion of the course.

Each quarter unit is equivalent to 0.6667 semester units. A typical 4-unit quarter system course equates to 2.6667 semester units. This is not a direct equivalent for the 3-unit courses in our business and economics programs. Your DPR will list a shortage.聽No formal waiver is required. During the graduation evaluation process, 快活林性息 Admissions and Records will clear the deficiency for Nazarian College students.

European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) semester units are not weighted the same as semester units earned at U.S. universities.聽聽The ECTS courses generally have fewer contact hours in a semester such that 1.00 ECTS credit hour is equal to 0.60 credit hours at 快活林性息.聽聽This means that you will need 5 ECTS units to substitute for a 3 unit 快活林性息 course.

The 快活林性息 residence requirement refers to the minimum number of course units completed on this campus. The residence requirement is completion of 30 units 鈥渋n residence at 快活林性息鈥� in the following distributions:

• 24 of the 30 units must be completed in Upper Division;
• 12 of the 30 units must be in the major; and
• 9 of the 30 units must be in General Education.

Yes. 聽At least 50 percent of the business and economics course credit units and 50 percent of the specialized major credit units required for the Bachelor of Science degrees in Accountancy, Business Administration, Finance, Information Systems, Management, Marketing and the Bachelor of Arts in Economics must be completed in residence at 快活林性息. For more details see:聽

Yes. They do count towards the units in residence requirements as if they were taken at the home campus.

Generally, no. Only courses taken on the CSU Northridge campus apply toward the residency requirement. The only exception is a course taken through CSU Fully Online as explained above.

No, a class taken by a 快活林性息 student at another campus through CSU Fully Online comes back to us like any other transfer course in terms of repeat rules: repeating an equivalent course elsewhere will not replace the 快活林性息 grade in the GPA. Also, units earned for equivalent courses (if both attempts are passing grades) will not be counted twice.

In general, 7-10 business days, but may take longer.

Check your DPR two weeks from the time you submit your completed course substitution form.

Contact the Chair/Designee responsible for reviewing your Sub/Waiver request聽

If you believe the substitution was denied in error, you can appeal to the Nazarian College Associate Dean. To set up an appointment, contact the Office of the Associate Dean at 818-677-2466.聽聽

Generally, 2 weeks, but may take up to 3-4 weeks if you are a graduating student.

The substitution will reflect in two places. First, in the body of the DPR where the required course is listed. You should see the substitute course applied to meet the applicable degree requirement. Second, near the end of the DPR in the section entitled: --- EXCEPTIONS TO ACADEMIC RECORD ---. This section provides a list of approved substitutions.

Contact the department chair of your major/minor.
