There are two types of petitions: a departmental petition, requiring only Departmental approval; and the blue petition, requiring Letters and Science approval. Departmental Petitions To petition for a course substitution or exemption for your English major/minor or American Lit & Culture major, please follow these guidelines: Bring your DPR to an English undergraduate counselor to review your request. If you are requesting credit for courses completed outside of UCLA, please bring a photocopy of the course description or a class syllabus. If you are requesting course credit for every level of a foreign language you place out of, please bring a copy of your placement exam results to the counselor. Upper division major/minor requirements can only be substituted with upper division courses (courses numbered 100-199), not with lower division courses. Once approved, your departmental counselor will process your course substitution/exemption online, therefore updating your DPR instantly. Blue Petitions Blue Petitions are handled by the College of Letters and Science. For more information regarding their uses and submission procedures, go to: http://www.college.ucla.edu/up/counseling/petitions/blue.htm ^ return to top
