Many 200 level courses are also open
to all students without prerequisite. However, in some programs there are
strict prerequisites, and the courses are only open to students with Sophomore standing or higher. Check individual course descriptions for details.

and 400 level courses
Most 300 and 400 level courses have
stated pre-requisites, and are open only to students who have a background in
the subject. The classes are limited to
an enrollment of 15 students; Upper College Seminars for moderated students
