Crosslisting

Crosslisting is only allowed for the two following occurrences:

• Crosslisting a permanent or temporary course with a topics course.
  • Under this scenario, it’s possible one or both courses may have GUR status.
• Crosslisting two equivalent courses.
  • These courses have the same course title and catalog description which includes the sentence “Also offered as …” reference. In this scenario, a student may only complete one of these courses for credit.

Courses that have different titles, learning objectives, and catalog descriptions, or courses that don’t have equivalency approvals required by the institution’s curriculum approval processes, may not be crosslisted at the schedule level.

To avoid confusion, this policy clarifies what does NOT constitute crosslisting. The following examples don’t meet the crosslisting definition but often occur at the course schedule level:

• Stacked undergraduate and graduate courses;
• Sciences courses with labs which have several sections with the same lecture meeting time and different lab meeting times;
• Lecture courses with a large number of students that have separate discussion meeting times once a week;
• Publications (e.g. Journalism) courses that have multiple course-level offerings with the same meeting time but aren’t equivalent.

To avoid further confusion, this policy clarifies other areas and uses of the term “crosslisting” that are not covered by this policy:

Banner

Crosslisting indicates that sections meet together and places a combined enrollment limit for the multiple classes.

Canvas

Crosslisting allows instructors to move section enrollments from individual courses and combine them into one course; a feature that is helpful when there are multiple sections and the managing of course data is in one location.

Curriculum (recently renamed, was Curriculog)

Crosslisting is the same terminology for equivalent/equivalency when a user proposes a primary course to be the same as a secondary course from a different academic unit.
