CS 120 Requirement

CS 120: Introduction to Computer Science is dropped as a prerequisite to the McIntire School of Commerce School effective immediately. The course continues to be recommended particularly for students planning to concentrate in information technology. 

We apologize for the past difficulty students have had in securing spaces in CS 120 and for the short notice of this curriculum change. Given the high demand for the CS 120 course and limited funds available to support the course, this mid-year change became necessary. For those of you who have completed CS 120, it is still a recommended course and you will find the skills developed useful. For those of you who have not been able to complete the course, it is no longer required and will not be included in the McIntire Admission Committee's prerequisite "mini" GPA evaluation. 

A computer programming course is regarded as one of many good electives for students to complete before enrollment in the McIntire School. If you have any questions regarding this change, please contact the McIntire Student Services Office.
