Assuming a waitlist is available, will granting class permission bypass the waitlist?

No. Generally bypassing the waitlist is not permitted. If a student needs some other override, such as instructor permission, they might be able to obtain that and get onto the waitlist, but will not be able to bypass the waitlist.

What if the instructor of record is not responding to the request for permission?

If you are not able to reach the instructor(s) of record, please contact the department or regional campus offering the class. Department contact information can be found at the Academic Departments Listing webpage.

How do I know I've successfully added a class, via permission, to my schedule?

After the request is approved, you will receive an email notifying you to confirm your registration. You will complete the registration process in your MyOHIO Student Center. Once the class is successfully added, it will be listed on your schedule in your student center.  

Please note: You must confirm permission for a class from your shopping cart. Clicking the confirm link in your list of pending class permissions will not add the class to your schedule. 

If I receive permission from the instructor to enroll in a class, does it guarantee me a spot?

No, permission does not guarantee a seat in the class. For example, if a class is open when you request permission but is full by the time you confirm your registration, you will not be able to enroll if you did not receive permission to override the class being full. For this reason, you should finalize your registration as soon as possible after receiving approval.

What if I request permission for a class that is not full at the time, but once the instructor grants permission the class has filled up?

In general, you will not be able to register for the class in this case. However, you can submit another permission request for this class, and, if there is not a waitlist for a class, the "class is full" override will be included on the request for the instructor(s) to review.

Will you still accept class permission slips ("green slips") after rolling out the new online class permission system?

Yes, we will continue to accept paper permission slips for a limited time.

What if I want to keep my class lecture section, but I want to request permission for a lab that better fits my schedule?

In this case, you can request permission, but you must request permission for both the lecture and lab, since they are registered for in tandem. You are not required to drop the class section you are in to request permission for a different one. If approved, you will then have the option to drop your original section and add the one for which you received permission.

The faculty member gave me permission to get into the class, but the expiration date to enroll via permission has passed. What should I do?

Once a class permission expiration has passed, you will not be able to use the approved permission. You will need to receive another approval, following the same process you did for the original approval (either initiating the process through
