CS Accelerated Pathways FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

• I already completed a 5000-level version of a course during my undergraduate career. Can I use this course to cover a 7000-level MS CS requirement? No - courses that have already been completed at the 5000-level cannot be used to cover 7000-level requirements. From the Lyle Catalog: "It is important to note that the graduate courses must be taken at the 7000 level from the beginning, as no conversion from 5000 to 7000 will be permitted after the add/drop deadline in the semester the course is taken."
  • What if the 5000-level course covers a core requirement? Please consult with your graduate academic advisor to determine a 7000-level course that will substitute for the core requirement.
