Can one get credit for both upper level and lower level classes w/same topic

[studyingfortests]

Hi, folks.

I have a couple of classes left to finish at TESU, and a couple of the courses I was interested in taking at TESU are upper-level courses in counseling and psychology that have the same or similar course title to courses I already took at community college.

My first thought is that I could probably not take these again as upper level classes, as it would duplicate material I've already studied ... but then again, the course material they describe in the syllabus appears to be fairly different, and more in depth, from the community college classes.

Anyone have experience with this?  I have arranged an appointment with a counselor next week, but was trying to do as much preparation as I can before the meeting to optimize time use.

Thanks!
