INQ Perspectives and Substitution Declaration rev June 2016

Directions:

1.  Enter the 200-level INQ courses you have taken in the chart below.

2.  Add disciplinary course substitutions in the rightmost column for any row in which you don’t have an INQ course.

3.  Students transferring to Roanoke after study at another college may transfer any or all 200-level INQ courses, BUT if three or more are transferred in, all remaining unmet requirements must be completed with INQ courses. Transfer codes are listed in parentheses after each requirement. Some codes have 3rd letters. G as the 3rd letter stands for Global. Once students start at RC, they must complete general education requirements with RC courses.

4.  Submit the completed form to the Registrar’s Office only after you have completed all 200-level INQ requirements.

Rules on Substitutions:

1.  No more than 3 total substitutions are allowed. You must take at least one INQ course in Math/Natural Science, one INQ course in Social Sciences, and one INQ course in Humanities/Fine Arts.

2.  If using a substitute for one INQ 260, the substitute and the other INQ 260 must be from different disciplines.

3.  Allowed substitutes

a.  For INQ 240: a one-unit course in Mathematics or Statistics

b.  For INQ 241: a one-unit course in Mathematics, Statistics, or Computer Science

c.  For INQ 250: a one-unit course in natural science that includes 3 hr/wk of laboratory from BIOL, CHEM, ENSC, or PHYS.
