In SIS, generally the first course a student takes that will satisfy a requirement is the one that will list there. SIS will always take the highest graded course to fulfill a requirement.  The practice of media requirement is processed before the elective requirement, and an “either/or” course will be evaluated for practice of media first. If it is not needed there, it will be available for elective credit. The only problem that might arise is if the student needs a 4000-level elective and that course goes in the practice of media requirement first. If this happens, please see the department administrator to correct your SIS account. The practice of media requirement takes the highest graded course. As a result, in progress courses may replace graded courses until the grade is posted.
