Note: Students are advised to pay attention to the designation of a course at the time of registration on SAP. For example, a course designated as a Pool-C course at the time of registration cannot be redesignated as a Pool-B course later on. Also, the course type can be changed only from RTP to non-RTP and from credit to audit, and not the other way round.
