Move Courses to Selected Term

Course Placeholder

Course placeholders allow you to plan for courses in your class schedule that satisfy degree requirements. Placeholders can be assigned to specific terms and will show as a temporary course in your schedule that must be replaced by a required course in the assigned term.

Visit the "Add a course placeholder" section of this page for more information on adding a placeholder. You will find more information on how to find your outstanding course requirements in the "Determine your required courses" section.
