Corequisites

Using the Corequisites tile, you can configure corequisites. Corequisites are courses that must be taken along with another course.

Prerequisites

To view the page, you must have Academics - Configuration - View authorization.

To edit the page, you must have Academics - Configuration - Manage authorization.

Your institution must have selected No for the following advanced feature (Select the Settings tile > expand System > select Advanced Features.): Allow Enhanced Pre-requisite and Co-requisite FeatureClosed Enables the new feature for configuring requisite rules. Using the feature, you can configure prerequisite or corequisite rules that you can apply to more than one course. When you enable this feature, a Course Requisite Rules option is available from the Configuration tile and the Prerequisite and Corequisite tiles are replaced with one Requisites tile in course configuration. When you select Yes, Anthology Student automatically migrates your existing prerequisite and corequisite rules to requisite rules so that you can modify and consolidate them as needed to make your rule management more efficient. During the migration, Anthology Student prefixes your existing prerequisite rules with pr- and corequisites rules with -cr. For example, if the course code for a prerequisite is ENG101 (course name: English Composition) the code of the rule will be pr-ENG101 and the name of the rule will be Legacy Pre-Req migrated rule for English Composition. If the course code for a corequisite is BIO101LAB, the name of the rule will be cr-BIO101LAB. Enabling this feature permanently disables features in the legacy interface related to rules (such as prerequisites and corequisite rules and actions for courses like register, unregister, and drop). Other changes can still be made to courses in the legacy interface (such as edits to the course, books, and fees).

If your institution selected Yes, the Corequisites and Prerequisites tiles are replaced with a Requisites tile.

You should be familiar with how to Use Features for Course Requisites.
