Courses and Units
How many units does a course have?

Im going into Business 1 in september. One of the requirements is math and it says:

3 units from MATH 1A03, 1LS3, 1M03
I am interested in taking 1M03 - is that a single unit or are there 3 units in that course?

The last digit of the course code specifies the units. So 1M03 is 3 units. Most 1 semester courses are 3 units and full year courses are 6 units, with some exceptions.

For your specific program you can find it in the undergraduate calendar.
