NOTE: Undergraduate students who are enrolled in upper-division courses without advanced business standing or other prerequisites are identified and administratively dropped at the beginning of each semester. Transfer and re-enrolling students must satisfy the same requirements as continuously enrolled students. Once you have been dropped from a course, verification of prerequisites does not guarantee re-enrollment if the class is full.
