We recognize that some students may experience extenuating circumstances that prevent enrollment in the three-week period allowed. Please contact the office if you find yourself in such a situation. Make sure to contact the office before the three-week window closes.

TIP For Faster Response:

Keep in mind when filling out the form to include section number or CRN. Often an instructor will teach two sections - one online and one on campus. Be sure to include your UIN and the instructor's name if given on the dynamic course schedule. All approvals are issued in the order in which they are recieved. Only an instructor may override the list in exigent circumstances.
