MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE COURSE table

(dwngss_ps.crse_mutual_excl)

Explanation

Mutually exclusive courses are courses that are similar to other courses in content but are not considered to be equivalent courses. Students who have taken courses in this category can be prevented from registering for other associated courses.

Source

The warehouse CRSE_MUTUAL_EXCL table is refreshed in batch mode from the Operational Data Store (ODS), which gets its data from the Banner database. The UPENN_ODS source table is SATURN_SCRMEXC. The Banner page where these courses are maintained is SCAMEXC.

Cautions and notes

• Mutually exclusive courses are treated as reciprocal in nature, the same way equivalent courses are. After a course has been defined as a mutual exclusion, it cannot also be defined as an equivalent. Registration error checking validates the mutually exclusive courses when a student registers for those courses. Mutually exclusive courses carry the minimum grade by level. A mutually exclusive course cannot be taken if the minimum grade has already been achieved for any course in the group.
