Completion of one of the two courses can be used to substitute for the BIO 271 requirement. 5 Completion of a higher level chemistry course, e.g., CHE 111 and 112L, can be used to substitute for CHE 103 and 110Lab, and completion of two higher level chemistry courses and their labs can be used to substitute for CHE 103, 104, and 110Lab. 6 Completion of PSY 241, Developmental Psychology, from the NC Community College System, can be used to satisfy this requirement.
