Requesting an Exception to Add a Course

Updated on

Sometimes there are special circumstances where students need to add a course that is already full or take a course without the listed prerequisites or requirements. In these cases, you can request an exception to add a course. You might qualify if:

  • This is the last course you need for graduation
  • You have transfer credits that meet the prerequisite requirements

Step 1: If you try to register for a course and you get this error message, follow the directions given based on the type of course you wish to request an exemption. (On-Campus, Remote, or Online) 

Note: the Online Course Authorization form is ONLY for Online Courses (course codes A1,B1,etc.).

Step 2: If you followed the link to request an exception to add an online course, fill out the information requested in the form shown below.

Note: The section number for online courses is the letter and number listed after the hyphen in a course code (Ex: CSE 130-A1). If the section number only has a number in it (Ex: CSE 130-01), it is a DAY class and you will need to reach out to the professor directly to request authorization.

Step 3: If you are unable to click the link or it is broken, please follow this link to the Online Course Authorization form:

Congratulations! Now you know how to request an exception to add a course.
