The seats in our courses are first reserved for students in psychology and neuroscience. Students outside of these departments must request permission through our e-form override procedure if they are interested in taking one of our PSYC/NEUR 300-level courses. We only start taking these requests at the start of each semester.

You’ll need to know the section number of the class you wish to request permission for. We cannot help you if a class is full or waitlisted, but you can still submit the e-form request in case a seat becomes available.

There are no guarantees for a spot in the course, and we typically allow a maximum of one 300-level course per term, per student.

We will look at the e-form requests once per day as of the first day of classes. You will only be emailed if you are given permission to register.

It is your responsibility to ensure that there are no issues that would prevent you from registering in the course once you have the permission, such as account holds, time conflicts, credit limits, etc. We cannot help you get back into a course you dropped that is outside of our department.

It is also your responsibility to be aware of class start dates and the strict DNE deadline when deciding to register, especially after missing a few classes. The DNE deadline is the last day to add classes and last day to drop classes with tuition refund.

The e-forms below will open on the first day of classes and close on the DNE deadline for each term.

• The Summer 2025 e-form will open on Monday, May 12, and close on Tuesday, May 20.
  The same e-form will re-open for the second summer semester on Wednesday, July 2, and close on Wednesday, July 9.
• The Fall 2025 e-form will open on Tuesday, September 2, and close on Monday, September 15.
• The Winter 2026 e-form will open on Monday, January 12, and close on Monday, January 26.
