Students who want prior coursework used as a prerequisite for a De Anza course must submit a prerequisite clearance form, along with an unofficial copy of their transcript, to the Admissions and Records Office for review. This transcript will not be evaluated for other transfer credit, but for prerequisite clearance only. Prerequisite clearance forms are available at deanza.edu/admissions/evaluations/ prerequisites.
UNITS (CREDIT UNITS)
A unit is the standard measurement of college and university work. One unit equals one hour of classroom work in most classes, predominantly those in lecture or lecture-discussion formats. Students should expect two hours of outside preparation for each one hour spent in class. Laboratory classes have three hours of work per week per unit. (Specialized performance classes such as athletics, drama and music require more than three hours per week per unit.) Quarter units are equal to two-thirds of a semester unit. Conversely, a semester unit is equal to one and a half quarter units.
UNSATISFACTORY WORK
When a student persistently neglects class assignments or has excessive absences, the instructor may drop the student from the class or assign a nonpassing grade. Students may also be assigned a nonpassing grade for violating De Anza’s published Academic Integrity policies.
