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 may 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)
