For students with 2009-2010 curriculum years, you NEED to take MAT125. Students with an earlier curriculum year do NOT need to take MAT125. If you change your curriculum year to be the same as your graduation year, you DO need to take MAT125. There are 2 exceptions: 1. If you took MAT114 AND MAT115 with a C or better, we can petition a substitution for MAT125. Please see the advisor to start the process. 2. If you took the AP Calculus BC exam with a score of 3 or better, can also be petitioned as a substitute for MAT125. Please see the advisor to start the process.

Prerequisite courses are required to promote success in subsequent courses. A prerequisite is a course that must be completed before taking the next course. For example, CIS234 is a prerequisite for CIS235 and CIS307.

Using your Cal Poly email account, email the department office at cisdept@csupomona.edu with the CRN for the class you want to add, list the prerequisites that you have taken, and where the prerequisites were taken. All of this information must exist already in Bronco Direct. Once the prerequisites are verified, you will be emailed the permission number.

Each department is responsible for removing holds assigned to them. The CIS holds are usually for first or second strike(s) in a CIS core class (CIS234, CIS235, CIS307, CIS304, CIS311, CIS305, and CIS328) and a low GPA. If you have a CIS 1st strike hold for a CIS core class or GPA hold for a GPA above 2.0 but below 2.2, please see Professor Carlin. If you have a CIS 2nd strike hold for a CIS core class or a GPA hold for a GPA below 2.0, please see the department chair.
