Student Petitions

 

Courses from other departments or institutions may be petitioned by uploading specific documents to our ONLINE PETITION SUBMISSION FORM. You are required to upload both a course syllabus and a completed STUDENT PETITION FORM for review. Please be advised, it may take between 6 and 8 weeks for the review to be completed and you will be notified by email with the results or a request for more information. 

 

Below are two examples of what to write in a Student Petition:

Example #1:

REQUEST: To review and approve GSST 001 from UC Riverside as a lower-division Critical Gender Studies elective.

REASON for REQUEST: To use GSST 001 as a lower-division course for my Critical Gender Studies major/minor.

PLEASE NOTE: CGS does not allow for courses from other institutions to be used to satisfy the DEI requirement.

 

Example #2:

REQUEST: To review and approve SOCI 132: Gender and Work as an upper-division Critical Gender Studies elective. 

REASON for REQUEST: To use SOCI 132 as an upper-division course for my Critical Gender Studies major/minor.
