Creating Course Requirement
  1. Navigate to Administrator > Courses > Prerequisites,
  2. Click New,
  3. Enter the Course Requirement information and click Save. 
Name identifies the requirement. It is reasonable to use the class level in the name so it is easy to recognize later. For example, if the requirement applies to Math 200, you might name it Math 200 Prerequisite.

Criterion determines the type of requirement. If you select Prerequisite, the student must complete certain courses, credits, or grades before enrolling in the target course. If you select Co-requisite, the student must take another course at the same time or within the same year, such as a science class with its lab. If you select Course Repeat Restriction, you can control when and under what conditions a student may retake a course. Note: For Graduation Requirements, you can use the Prerequisite criterion. Example: If a student must pass four English courses, you can set the course type to English and define the passing grade. Then, on the Graduation Requirements screen, add this requirement and specify the required number of credits. 

Student – Must Have means the student fulfills the criterion if they meet all specified conditions (such as grade or credits). Must Not Have means the student fulfills the criterion by not meeting those conditions.

Course Type and Course Level define which courses qualify for the requirement. Course Level allows you to pick one level, a range of levels, or specific levels.

Any Grade / Most Recent is used when a requirement is based on a grade. You can specify the grade type, range, minimum or maximum, or exact grade that must be achieved.

# of Credits is used when a requirement is based on credits earned. You can set a minimum, maximum, or range of credits that must be satisfied.

When the Criterion is set to Co-requisite, you can also define when the related course must meet in relation to the target course:
  • Course (Meet Before) – the related course must meet in a previous marking period.
  • Course (Meet Before Or Same As) – the related course may meet in a previous or the same marking period.
  • Course (Meet Same With) – the related course must meet in the same marking period.
  • Course (Meet After Or Same As) – the related course may meet in a later or the same marking period.
  • Course (Meet After) – the related course must meet in a later marking period.
  • Course (Meet Any With) – the related course may meet in any marking period (before, same, or after).

Link on Section ensures that co-requisite classes are scheduled in the same section. For example, if Math 100 and Math 200 are co-requisites, the student would only be able to enroll in Math 100 section 01 if also enrolled in Math 200 section 01.

Link on Teacher ensures that co-requisite classes are scheduled with the same teacher. For example, Math 100 and Math 200 co-requisites would only be allowed if both classes are taught by the same teacher.

When multiple criteria are created for the same requirement, you must define the criteria logic. If there is only one criterion, enter “1.” If either of two conditions can be met, use an OR operator between the criterion numbers. If all conditions must be met, use an AND operator.

There are two methods to assign course requirements to a Course.
  1. Assign Course Requirement to Course - Bulk. 
  2. Assign Course Requirement to Course - Individual.
