A prerequisite is a requirement that must be completed prior to the registration of a course. For instance, Math 65 must be taken before Math 55; Math 65, in this case, is the prerequisite for Math 55.
Many courses offered by Chabot College require the completion of prerequisite courses taken at Chabot, or the equivalent taken at another accredited institution. The Chabot College Catalog and Schedule of Classes list prerequisites after each course description when applicable.
The student is responsible for meeting prerequisite(s) wherever listed. Please note that Chabot’s registration system, CLASS-Web recognizes only prerequisites completed at Chabot. If a student completed an equivalent course at another institution, s/he must submit documentation to either the Counseling Division (for a prerequisite override) or to the appropriate academic division for a Prerequisite Challenge. Until prerequisite equivalence is established, the student will be unable to register for the class.
