General Physics Permits are used for registration errors due to missing prerequisites, field of study errors, honors cohort errors, major, year or other errors. DO NOT use a general permit for a closed course as it will not be accepted. Closed Course Permit Link is below.
For students who have to take Math and Physics at the same time (co-requisite), try to register for the Math course first and then the Physics course/lab. For a Physics Course and a Physics Lab, try to register for the course first and then the lab. By registering in this order, it may alleviate the need for a permit. If the course or lab is full, add yourself to the waitlist (if available). If you are wait listed, please remain on the waitlist until a spot opens and follow the instructions provided in the Registrar's email.
All permits are issued Monday through Friday, 9:00 am - 4:00 pm (not including weekends and Holidays). Please allow 2-3 business days for processing of permits. Please do not contact the Physics Department to inquire about the status of your permit request until 3 business days have passed. Students will be notified via e-mail when a permit has been issued and instructions on how to go about registering. The Physics Department staff/faculty cannot register a student for a course. The student is responsible for registering for courses & labs. For further information about general Physics permits, please see information provided below.
The Closed Course Permit Link will open once the wait lists are closed by the Registrar's Office. Students are asked to be patient with the closed course permit process.
Closed course requests may not be granted by the Physics Department if other sections of the course have not reached their maximum of number of students. The student should re-arrange their schedule to register in the section that has not reached its maximum size. If the upper limit has been reached in all sections of a course, an Undergraduate Student, who needs the course to graduate, will be given priority for a closed course permit.
