Available Courses
NEW – For courses that contain both Parts A and B (i.e. Biology), students must complete both parts online within one calendar year to earn the 1.0 credit to fulfill graduation requirements. However, students have some flexibility and choice on when they complete Part A and Part B and are not required to complete both parts in summer.For example, students can:
- Complete Part A in ASU 1 summer session and Part B in the fall.
- Complete Part A in ASU 2 summer session and Part B in the fall.
- Complete Part A in ASU 1 summer session and Part B in ASU 2 summer session.
Note: Students who begin Part A of a course in the online setting must complete Part B in the online setting to receive the 1.0 credit.
