Common Registration Add ErrorsView Details

If the message indicates that you should do so, contact the section instructor if you believe you should be granted an override (or call the department if the instructor is unavailable). Provide your ISU ID and the course CRN.

Note: You must go back into MyISU and register if granted an override.

Prerequisite requiredView Details

You must take another class first — or have a high test score. If you think you qualify to take the class anyway, contact the instructor or the department chair to ask for an override. If granted, you can then attempt to register for the class.

Corequisite requiredView Details

You must also take another class at the same time, such as a Biology class which has a corequisite lab. You must simultaneously enter both numbers in the worksheet to register for these classes. Contact the instructor or department chair if you think you need an override for this restriction. If granted, you can then attempt to register for the class.

Major restrictionView Details

Only students majoring in the field can take the class. If you are not in that major, contact the instructor or department chair to ask for an override. If granted, you can then attempt to register for the class.

Instructor permissionView Details

You need special permission to register for the class. Contact the instructor or department chair to get permission and an override. If granted, you can then attempt to register for the class.

Maximum hours exceededView Details

Most undergraduate students are only allowed to register for 18 credits. To register for more, you must get permission from the Dean of your college.
- Note: Not recommended for your first semester at ISU.

Class level restrictionView Details

Some classes are open only to students at certain levels, i.e., juniors or seniors. If you want to take the class, contact the department for permission, or wait until you are at the correct class level.
- Note: You must be admitted to Graduate School to take 5000-8000 level courses.
