What is a permission number?

A permission number is a six digit number which is specific to a class and section that allows a student to register for a course which is already closed.

Where do I get a permission number?

Permission numbers are given to an individual student by the instructor of the course. Permission numbers are given when the instructor grants permission for a student to register for a class which is closed due to over-enrollment, or to which the student does not have the proper prerequisites.  Permission numbers cannot be shared.

Important things to know about a permission number?

  • Permission numbers can only be used once. Please don't give the same permission number to more than one student - permission numbers can't be shared between students
  • Permission numbers are specific to a course and section
  • Permission numbers must be used before the end of Registration Add/Drop (i.e., they expire)
  • Permission numbers are only for closed classes or for classes that student does not have the prerequisites

If you have any questions about your permission numbers or need additional numbers, please let the Registrar's Office know.
