4-Year Course Planning Tool 

As you preview the 2025-26 Course Catalog, you may want to consider mapping out the courses you’re interested in taking. 

Below, you will find a link to a 4-Year Course Planning Tool. This tool will help you map out the Pathway courses you want to take when you want to take them. 

Planning out the courses you want to take will ensure that you set yourself up for a great 4-year experience.

Many courses are "sequenced" so that you must take a Discover level course before you can take a more advanced, Applied level course. These are called "prerequisites." Additionally, some courses require you to be enrolled in a certain math or science course at the same time. These courses are called "co-requisites."
