Before you submit the registration form
Pay particular attention to the "NOTES" that appear directly below certain course sections in the Minerva Class Schedule. The Visual Schedule Builder (VSB) does not take these notes into account when suggesting CRNs or course sections. Reviewing these notes may help explain registration error messages and could save you from having to submit the registration form unnecessarily.

Capacity overrides
Please continue monitoring Minerva regularly, as spaces may become available. Requests for capacity overrides will only be reviewed closer to the start of the term and therefore the form should be submitted according to the following schedule: September for Fall courses, January for Winter courses, May for Summer courses. Before completing this form, please prioritize core courses over non-core courses (minor courses, general complementary courses, technical complementary courses, electives etc.). Capacity permit overrides will not be granted for courses that have available space in other sections compatible with your core course schedule.

Students experiencing difficulty registering for Freshman, MATH, FACC, and WCOM courses should complete the Faculty of Engineering Registration Form - Freshman, MATH, FACC, and WCOM Courses Only form.
