To ensure that all students receive the necessary individual attention and ample opportunity to participate in class, an appropriate capacity has been designated for each course and will be adhered to. However, here are two suggestions that may help you get into a closed class. Be prepared with a back-up plan, though, in case you are not able to add the class through either of these means.

1. Check with the registrar's office regularly to see if any seats have opened in the class. If so, add the class.
   
   
2. Attend the class during the first week. After the class has met twice, ask the instructor if there are students on the roll sheet who have not been attending. If so, ask the instructor to write a note to the department representative requesting that you be admitted to the class. Take the note to the appropriate representative listed below to get an official add slip. Finally, take the add slip to the registrar's office.

Although the days and times representatives have available to meet with students change each term, the following individuals are responsible for meeting with students regarding the respective courses. Please see schedules posted in Walker at the beginning of each term for more specific information on when these representatives are available. If they are not able to get you into the course of your choice, they can help you to identify alternative courses that are still open.
