NOTE: If you allow a student into your class that does not meet the prerequisite for the course, you must grant a permission to the student and select the appropriate check box (Requisite 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:
A student is an undergraduate and wants to enroll in a graduate level 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.)
There are different reasons to grant a student permission to take your class. You must select the checkbox related to the reason for the permission for each student that you add to your permission list. The reasons include:
