Section Eight - Course Substitutions and Academic Appeals
The University of North Georgia recognizes both the variation in the needs of students with disabilities and the variation in course contexts as an individual student progresses through his or her program of study.
Course Substitutions
A student is required by the University System of Georgia to meet the essential requirements of his or her respective program. Any request for course accommodations and substitutions will be decided on a case- by-case basis; however, the policies of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia preclude waiving any core course and allows for substitutions only in approved areas.
A course may be substituted when:
- Disability documentation supports the need for a substitution
- The course is determined not to be essential to the student's program of study
- The course in question is not part of the core curriculum
