Currently enrolled students in a range of faculties have managed to enrol in this unit that, while equivalent to at least one unit taught by the Faculty, is a service unit for the Monash College program commenced in 2003. The changes made exclude students currently enrolled in Monash Couses from enrolling, but does not extend the specific unit prohibitions. This is to allow incoming Monash College students who have completed GCO1852 to continue with programs in the Faculty with credit for this unit.

GCO1852 teaches Business Applications and is a core unit in the Business Systems stream for Monash College students. The equivalent FIT unit, BUS1010, is a core unit in the Bachelor of Business Systems.

The unit has been developed with the assistance of the School of Business Systems as it is equivalent to BUS1010 in the Monash College program. It has overlap also with GCO1851.
