Course Numbering System
The following numbering system is used by Central Connecticut State University for Undergraduate and Graduate Courses
- 001-099 Non-credit courses and developmental courses
- 100 Search courses (undergraduate credit)
- 101-199 Courses open to first-year students, and in general to all undergraduate students
- 200-299 Courses open to sophomores, and in general to all undergraduate students
- 300-399 Courses open to juniors, and in general to sophomores, juniors, and seniors
- 400-499 Courses open to seniors, and in general to juniors, seniors, and graduate students, when included in the graduate catalog. Additional work is required for graduate students to earn graduate credit.
*Courses numbered under 400 may be applied toward teacher certification and official certificate programs when recommended by the advisor, but will not be approved for inclusion in a degree program.
*Courses numbered 400 and above may be included in a planned program of graduate study only when they are listed in the graduate catalog and the course description so allows and when approved by the advisor and the School of Graduate Studies Dean. Students may have a maximum of nine credits (and in some cases zero to six, depending on the program) at the 400 level as approved by the program advisor.
