Concept: Registration Restriction Overrides

You can use the

Maintain Registration Restriction Overrides for Student

task to grant students override tokens that enable them to bypass a specific registration restriction for a course. Example: MATH 101 is a prerequisite for MATH 201. You can bypass this requirement and enable a student to take MATH 201 without completing MATH 101.

You can configure enrollment access restrictions on the

Maintain Enrollment Access and Grading Policy

task.

You can configure security groups to enable administrators to override restrictions when you register or waitlist students for courses.

When you override a

Capacity

restriction for a course section, the number of enrolled students increases but the

Section Capacity

doesn't change. This can delay waitlist promotion for that course section, unless the waitlist notification existed before you overrode the capacity restriction. To prevent delays in waitlist promotion, consider increasing the

Section Capacity

using the

Edit Published Course Section

task.

You can use the

Registration Audit History

report to view past overrides.
