A. One of your graduation requirements is to take three CS electives. Another graduation requirement is to take a minimum of 120 credits. Your GenEds account for about 41 and your CS major requirements count for around 52. That leaves around 27 credits to hit the 120 mark. You might have brought in credits through Dual Enrollment or AP Test credit that count toward your 120 credit requirement. | A. One of your graduation requirements is to take three CS electives.

A. No. Every semester we have a dozen people with the same predicament and we cannot accommodate everyone. If you don't get in, wait until next semester when you have more prerequisites and thus more options. This would be a good time to start looking at picking up a minor with your extra class slots next semester. | A.

+ | Q. I'm taking a **prerequisite class over the summer**; can I get an override into the CS course now? | ||
+ | |||
+ | A. No. If you're taking, for example, MATH 231 over the summer, we will not give you an override into the CS course it is a prerequisite for (CS 240). You will not be able to enroll in the CS course until we know the final grade you made in the prerequisite class. That means the CS course you want might be filled up before you are able to enroll. | ||

+ | Q. My enrollment is tomorrow and **I'm worried that [insert CS class] is going to fill up before I'm able to enroll.** Is there anything you can do to ensure that I get a seat? | ||
+ | |||
+ | A. No. We do not offer preemptive overrides or guarantee seats in advance of your enrollment. If you can't get a seat, get on the waitlist. That's the only thing to do. | ||
