Class permissions are given by departments or faculty for a couple of reasons:

1. The class/course requires department or instructor consent.
   • Students cannot register for the class without permission.
2. The class is full.
   • Instructors or departments can determine if the room and other conditions will safely allow for another student to enroll in the class.
3. Pre-requisites are not met.
   • The instructor or department can determine if a student will be able to successfully complete the class without all of the prerequisites (typically students must show evidence of this).
   • Class Permissions are entered by departments or colleges (they do not register you for the class). Students must self-register within WINS when class permission is given.

Notes:

• Class permissions are class or section specific - You must register for the class/section that you received permission for (you will not be able to register for other sections, unless they are open and you meet the pre-requisites).
• The class will still show as full on WINS - the department or instructor has given permission for you to enroll in the class.
• Students must self-register for the class in WINS.
