Common Course Numbering
Common Course Numbering
In summer quarter 2008, Clark College adopted common course numbering (CCN), a
system of numbering similar classes between all of Washington's 34 community and technical
colleges. CCN makes it easier for students to transfer between community
colleges by identifying which courses are similar from school to school. Courses
that do not fall under CCN may still transfer to other community colleges;
check with your advisor or credentials office for more information.
There are four possible changes you'll see as part of CCN:
In general, the common courses are indicated by the ampersand and course number. In some cases, the course titles may be different from one school to the next. If you have already taken a class and it is renumbered as part of CCN, you may not earn credit for the same class under the new course number. For example: a student who has already taken CHEM 131, General Inorganic Chemistry, may not earn additional credits for taking CHEM& 141, General Chemistry I --they are the same class. A note will appear on classes where such a change has taken place in both the quarterly class schedule and the academic catalog. If you have questions about which classes to take under the new common course numbers, contact Clark's Advising Department at 360-992-2345.
