ADVISING UPDATE EMAILS
If you can't register for any class for any reason, check the prerequisites first. If you feel you have met those prerequisites, please submit a "Course Override Request" online through My IllinoisState.edu.
The online request form will be under the "Academics" tab in the “Registration" section.
Each department is responsible for handling "Course Override Requests" for courses in their department. (For example: All English classes are handled by the Department of English.)
Once a "Course Override Request" is submitted, the appropriate department will review and respond to your request.
COURSE OVERRIDE REQUESTS
GRADUATION PREP
Seniors are strongly encouraged to meet with the FCS Academic Advisor regarding their last semester, prior to the start of registration, to confirm they are on target for their anticipated graduation date.
Fill out the Graduation Notification Form the semester before you graduate. This prompts me to do one more ‘start from scratch’ degree audit before the start of your final semester.
