This includes a lower division course (GE course/freshman or sophomore course) being substituted for an upper division course requirement (EarthSS 100 and above). When applying for a substitution include documentation from the program or university that demonstrates the course level, checking the pre-reqs and/or course catalogue can be helpful).
