First Course Recommendations

Students who have a valid and verifiable state pesticide license can request to have the license reviewed by the department for possible exemption of TURF 230. Please scan your valid license as a PDF and email it to your assigned academic adviser. 

If you begin in the fall semester, we recommend that you take TURF 235 this semester. 

If you begin in the spring semester, we recommend that you take TURF 230 (or submit your pesticides license), TURF 235, and/or TURF 238. If you plan to only take one course your first semester, we recommend starting out with TURF 235. 

If you are starting in summer, we recommend you take TURF 235 or TURF 238.
