The Washington Community and Technical College system has adopted common course numbers, prefixes and titles for courses that are equivalent at many two year colleges. These changes go into effect Summer Quarter, 2008. The courses and their descriptions are not changing, just the course number and in some cases the prefix and/or title. There are changes to both common courses and non-common courses. Common courses are identified by having an “&” character at the end of the prefix, for example ENGL& or ANTH&. You can see a complete list of all the changes and more information at tacomacc.edu/ccn.
