Prerequisites

Many courses require prerequisite courses and/or test scores. TTC’s computer system will automatically block your registration when a prerequisite course and/or placement test score is required for enrollment in the course if your records do not show that you have met the prerequisites.

Your academic advisor will assist you in scheduling your classes and checking for prerequisites or corequisites. To find out prerequisites or corequisites for a course, look in the College Catalog (Course Description section starting on page C-1). You can also find prerequisites that are required for a course in Navigate and in TTC Express by following these steps:

1. Click Search for Sections.
2. Select a term from the drop-down menu.
3. Select a subject from the drop-down menu.
4. Fill in the course number.
5. Click Submit.
6. Click on the course in the Section Name and Title column.
7. The course description and prerequisites will display in a new window.

If you do not meet corequisite or prerequisite requirements for a course, you cannot register for the course unless you receive approval from the appropriate academic department.

Most courses have additional prerequisite reading requirements that can be demonstrated by test scores or awarded transfer credit on file.
