until the day before classes start for the semester.
- If a space opens up in the course, students will be notified via email and will have
24 hours to register themselves in the section.
- Additional information, including instructions on how to utilize the Waitlist can be found on the Registrar's website.
Permit Requests

hours, and/or have not completed specific course prerequisites with the appropriate
grades

45 college-level hours and specific course prerequisites must be completed to be eligible
to take Upper Division business courses.
Course Overload Requests
- Undergraduate students may enroll in a maximum of 20.5 hours for Fall or Spring, and
23 hours for Summer, as long as the maximum hours for any of the term’s “parts of
term” are not exceeded. To exceed these loads, a student must receive overload approval.
- In order for a student to be reviewed for a course overload the student must have
a 3.0 cumulative grade point average.
