- Contacting the instructor by email is strongly recommended. A polite email can help the instructor understand your situation, especially if the course is outside your department or you have a special academic reason for taking it.
- If the request is unavailable because of academic restrictions or eligibility requirements, contact the course instructor directly for guidance.
Step 2: Approval for Exceptional Course Registration (by Instructor)
Aug 31 (Mon) 11:00 – Sep 4 (Fri) 24:00
- Instructors review student requests directly in the system and either approve or reject them.
- Once approved, the course is automatically added to the student’s registration.
- Rejected requests will display the reason in the system.
- If your request is rejected, use the Final Course Registration (Add/Drop) period to look for another course.
Important Notes — Please Read Before You Apply
Approved Courses Cannot Be Cancelled
Once the instructor approves the request, you cannot cancel or drop that course during the Add/Drop period.
Timetable Conflict
If the approved course overlaps even partially with an existing course, the existing course will be removed and replaced by the approved course.
Credit Limit
Your total registered credits, including the approved course, must stay within your maximum allowable credit limit.
Attendance
If the instructor has permitted you to enroll, attend the first class even if the attendance record has not been updated yet. If the record is still missing after registration is confirmed, ask the professor to update or reissue it.
