Guidelines for a Course Conflict Exception:
1. Both classes are required for completing a declared major, minor, general education plan, or teacher certification at
Aquinas.
2. The courses are not listed in the department rotation as available to the student until after their expected
graduation date, or delaying the courses will prohibit the student from graduating within their current timeline.
3. There is a completed Application for Degree Candidacy on file to show the expected graduation date and to verify
need for both classes.
4. If an alternative course is available during the same semester to complete the same requirement, the exception will
not be granted.
5. The missed class time does not exceed 20% of the total meeting time of the course (15% of Quadmester courses),
including a 5 minute travel time between classes.
6. The academic chairperson of the department(s) where arrangements to accommodate the course time overlap are
being made agrees that those arrangements ensure the student will make up both the missed class time and the
missed course content.
7. The Request for Course Conflict Exception is received by the Registrar two weeks prior to the first day of the
semester.
