How Permission Numbers Work

 

Class Permission Numbers allow students to register for courses for which they do not meet all of the enrollment conditions.  
Permission Numbers override the following:

 

  • class enrollment capacity,
  • class requisites,
  • instructor approval,
  • reserve capacity (seats reserved for first time students),
  • wait list position.

 

Permission Numbers do not override the following:

 

  • the deadline to add a class,
  • time conflicts,
  • student's enrollment unit cap,
  • holds preventing registration,
  • allowable number of class repeats
