• ACT or other test score minimum
• Other course completion
• Other course completion with a minimum grade

If you think you have met the prerequisites, review your academic transcript on your Academics tab in myGate to verify. Follow up with your academic advisor if you need further assistance or clarification.
If you are confident in your ability to succeed in this course without the prerequisite, contact the instructor to request a prerequisite override.

Student Attribute Restriction

Some courses are set up to require certain student attributes before any student is permitted to register for those specific courses. Student attributes include: admitted to programs (such as teacher education, OSH, Nursing, etc.). 
Click on the CRN of the course and then click on "View Catalog Entry". Review the course description to see if this course has an admission requirement.
If you feel like you have met the admission requirement for that course, please contact your academic advisor to verify. If you have not been admitted to that program, you will need to select a different course.

Time Conflict

Most courses are offered at specific times/days. The registration system is set up to prevent students from registering for classes that overlap times/days. When you attempt to register for a class that overlaps another class on your schedule, you will receive a time conflict error message.
Review your current schedule to see what days/times you have class. Go to your ACADEMICS tab and click on the MY SCHEDULE - VIEW/PRINT from your Registration Tools Channel. You may also use MY SCHEDULE - WEEK AT A GLANCE to view your schedule in a calendar format.
Use your schedule to review the time conflicts and to help you with checking for other potential conflicts with course(s) or section(s) you may want to add. You now have a few options on how to proceed:

1. Use the class search feature to search for a different section of the course you wanted to register for, but were unsuccessful.
2. If the time time conflict is 15 minutes or less, you may be able to obtain permission (form required) from one of the instructors to arrive or leave class early.
3. Use the class search feature to search for a different section of the course currently on your schedule. You'll want to use this option if the course you wanted to add, but couldn't, only had one section available/open.
4. If the course you wanted to add was an elective and you are open to looking for a different course, talk to your academic advisor to see what other courses may be good fits for your degree program.
