Banweb Registration Errors Explained
Prerequisite and Test Score Error: You do not have one or more of the prerequisites for a class. Note: classes you are currently enrolled in fulfill pre-registration requirements. A Prerequisite Waiver Form will have to be signed by the course instructor AND your advisor.
Coreq Required: You must register for both the class and any co-requisite class(es) or lab(s). For example, CHEM 1215L is a co-requisite for CHEM 1215, that is, you cannot register for CHEM 1215 without simultaneously registering for CHEM 1215L.
Closed Section: The class is at maximum capacity waitlist.
Time Conflict: Two of your classes have overlapping times or start/end at the same time, that is, if one class ends at 1300 and your next class starts at 1300, this would be a time conflict. The error message will state which CRN the rejected class conflicts with. The Registrar’s Office will override this error with no further paperwork. It is up to you to make arrangements with your instructor.
Class Restriction: You must have completed a certain number of credit hours before you can register for the class (e.g., some courses require that you have junior or senior standing). Class restrictions are listed in the Course Catalog under course prerequisites. A Prerequisite Waiver Form will have to be signed by the course instructor AND your advisor.
