Before you begin...

NOTE:  If you allow a student into your class that does not meet the prerequisite for the course, be aware that by allowing them into your class you are not giving the student a prerequisite override.  In order to grant a prerequisite override, you must grant a permission to the student and select the appropriate check box (PrerequisiteRequisite Not Met) that identifies that the reason for the permission is to allow a student to override the prerequisite.

You must grant a student permission to take your class for one of several reasons:

• Your class is set up as a student-specific permission only class (no student can register for your class unless you grant them a permission.) - select the Consent Required check box.

• A student does not meet the minimum requirements or prerequisites for your class (select the Requisite Not Met check box.)
• The class is full and is not allowing additional students to register for the class (select the Closed Class check box.)
• A student is an undergraduate and wants to enroll in a graduate level class The student does not meet the prerequisites for the class(select the Career Restriction check box.)
• A combination of the above

The steps for granting permissions into your class is dependent on the reasons that you need to grant the permission.

Success Factors

• Communicate with the student with whom you are granting the permission to ensure they understand how to use the permission.
• Ensure the student uses the permission within the registration period.
• If the course is closed, or full, the permission will not work unless you have checked off the 'course closed' check box when granting the permission.  (Don't worry, if you forgot then you can always go back to check the box if necessary.)
