  1. DARSWeb 3.5 Advisor: How to Perform a “Use Course” Exception

  2. DEFINITION – USE COURSE • This exception will force a student’s course into a certain requirement. • NOTE: It is advisable to try an “Insert Course” exception before attempting a “Use Course” exception.

  3. EXAMPLE • Geography 597.01 could be used in either the major or in the Contemporary World requirement. Geography 597.01 matches the major first since it is processed before the Contemporary World requirement. • It was necessary to move Geography 597.01 into the “Contemporary World” category. • Another course (Geography 511) is available to be used in the major.

  4. BEFORE THE EXCEPTION

  5. HOW TO “USE” (FORCE) A COURSE INTO A REQUIREMENT • Step 1. Select “Add Exception” from the Exceptions menu, THEN SELECT “Use Course” from the list. • Step 2. Input the course to be used for this exception and input the pseudo course associated with the target sub-requirement. • Step 3. Create exception. Notes may be added.

  6. Step 1a. Select “Add Exception” from the Exceptions menu.

  7. Step 1b.Select “Use Course”.

  8. Step 2.Enter the course (dept and number) and pseudo course into the proper fields. Note: matching for courses is case-sensitive thus, use UPPER CASE in all course fields.

  9. Step 3.Click “SaveAdd”

  10. AFTER THE EXCEPTION Note: A different course has fulfilled the elective component of the major … since GEOG 597.01 was “forced” tobe used as a Contemporary World course.

  11. SPECIAL NOTES • In some cases, an “Insert Course” exception may not be “powerful” enough. For example, if you try to insert a course where another course is already being used, this exception may not work. In this case, the “Use Course” exception may be necessary. • It is recommended that you try an “Insert Course” before a “Use Course” or “Course Substitution” exception.
