General Information
College-level prerequisites: Enrollment in most college-level courses requires qualifying test scores or completion of corequisite learning support coursework. See Mandatory Placement of Degree Admission Students for more information regarding admission to college-level courses.
Tennessee Board of Regents designations: Courses denoted with the ♦ symbol are General Education courses transferable within the Tennessee Board of Regents system. Every TBR institution incorporates a common 41-hour General Education core into its degree requirements and accepts all courses designated with the ♦ symbol as meeting these requirements. A complete matrix of courses that satisfy General Education requirements at all TBR institutions is available on the TBR webpage.
University of Tennessee designations: Courses denoted with the ★ symbol are Pellissippi State courses that receive direct course equivalency at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
