A limited enrollment course that is oversubscribed will have a wait list sent to each department office. Students can find out if they are on the wait list from a detailed report, available in the Office of the Registrar. If a course fills up, during the pre-selection period, it will be closed. A list of closed courses will be posted in the Office of the Registrar. If spaces develop after the course has closed, a department may signify permission to add the course by initialing a course change that you would then submit to the Office of the Registrar.
Departments have the option of offering admission to courses by application or interview.
Such courses are clearly marked in the Course Offerings . Contact the department for deadlines and application procedures. Departments with special needs not covered by Limited Enrollment Course Selection employ this restriction. The restriction allows a department to distribute students evenly among laboratory periods, when specialized equipment limits section size.
