The Registrar’s Office can add pre-requisite overrides upon request from the academic advisor. Other overrides should be entered by the responsible academic department.

Check SFASTCA to see registration history, check http://classschedule.tulane.edu or Banner (SSARRES, SSAPREQ) and make sure an override is necessary Sometimes there are reasons a student cannot register that gets mixed up with other errors on the schedule (field of study restrictions, for example) We usually assume advisors have the proper documentation for pre-req/repeat overrides.
If that's clear, consider the override that's being requested. There are 4 types of overrides in SFASRPO: a. Pre-Req
b. Department
c. Capacity
d. Repeat We can do a pre-req override provided the advisor gives a reason (they're expecting AP/IB/A-level/transfer coursework). Usually the advisor cites a specific CRN - for 202230, they might request a pre-req override for 98619 (PSYC 3200-02). Issue the override for PSYC 3200, not just that section. It makes life easier if the student changes their mind on sections. Repeat overrides can be issued at the discretion of the advisor. All other overrides need to come from the department or with some sort of supporting documentation (an email from a professor, etc). If a special circumstance requires you to override some sort of registration error, (say a time conflict) override in SFAREGS.
