<p>Can you get a letter from the Professor who taught the Intro to Computers course? It doesn’t have to be anything personal, just something saying “Tiako Blahblah was a student in my Introduction to Computers course in (whatever semester you took the course). This student passed my class with (insert your letter grade here).” Blah blah blah, just a letter saying that you are in good standing with the class and that you successfully passed. Then get a copy of the syllabus and any work you did and show all of it to the head of the department OR the dean of the school the department is in.</p>
<p>One of my friends had to do this to get out of an intro course for my major. NYU almost rejected the class just because the name was something stupid, while the material nearly identical to the class that NYU wanted her to take. She had to escalate it all the way to the dean of our school division, because taking this course would have set her back a whole semester for graduation.</p>
