You are receiving this message because you have not taken the prerequisites.

If you are interested in this course, enroll in the prerequisite course this semester so that you may take the course you've attempted to add in the future. Prerequisites can be found in the Bulletin.

If you feel that you should not have to take the prereq, contact the instructor of the course and ask for special permission. If permission is given, provide them with the course number, course CRN, your 81#, and a link to this form TO BE SUBMITTED BY THE INSTRUCTOR.

If you are given permission for a capacity override, the course will still appear to be full. Enter the CRN of the course into a blank on the Add Classes Worksheet at the bottom of the Add/Drop page via ATHENA, and submit changes - see image below.
