§ 6-61-1402. Courses included in the common course numbering system.
The Arkansas Higher Education Coordinating Board, in collaboration with all state-supported institutions of higher education, shall develop and approve a statewide common course numbering system for lower-division general education courses found within the Arkansas Course Transfer System. A state-supported institution of higher education that is not in full compliance with this subchapter shall not be eligible to accept state aid from the Higher Education Grants Fund Account on behalf of a student. A course designated as an upper-division course level may be offered by any four-year state-supported institution of higher education and shall be characterized by a need for advanced academic preparation and skills that a student would be unlikely to achieve without significant prior coursework. Upper-division courses are not required to be included in the common course numbering system. A course designated as a lower-division course level may be offered by any state-supported institution of higher education. The common course numbering system shall include the thirty-five-hour general education core and major program prerequisites that are included in the state minimum core curriculum under § 6-61-231.
