Course Action Form

SIS will deny enrollment in a course if you do not meet the class section restrictions, if the course is full, wait listed, or restricted to instructor permission.

When a course is full you will likely be directed to place your name on either the wait list or the permission list. You may add your name if you would like to be considered for the class.

Some instructors may still use a paper Course Action Form to allow you to enroll in a class. The paper form will also be needed if you are requesting permission to enroll in more than 17 credits. Requests to exceed the maximum or drop below the minimum must be submitted with an explanatory petition to your association dean.

Enrollment in Courses > 6000

To request an exception, you should complete and submit the 6000 form. Any other enrollments in courses numbered >5999 will be cancelled.
