SDSU students are not allowed to enroll in courses with time conflicts. Consent of the instructor or department cannot override this policy. Students cannot enroll in more than one section of a course that does not allow multiple course enrollments.

Examples

Students must satisfy course prerequisites listed in the current University Catalog (or their equivalent) prior to beginning a course. Course prerequisites can be enforced by:

• my.SDSU
• The department
• The course instructor

Students with questions on course prerequisites should consult the University Catalog or the major advisor.

Examples

During initial registration for fall or spring terms, undergraduate students can enroll in a maximum of 18 units. One week prior to the start of each semester, the unit limit will be increased to 21 units.

Students can enroll in a maximum of 18 units during the summer term, with no more than 9 units in each six-week summer session (S1 and S2) or 18 units in the thirteen-week session (T1).

Undergraduate students wishing to exceed the unit limit will be required to have approval of the major department.

Example

Conditional enrollment permits students to register for courses with prerequisite requirements while they are still completing those prerequisites. If the prerequisites are not fulfilled by the end of the term, the course will be removed from the student's schedule.

Examples

Students may enroll in fall classes while completing prerequisites in the spring. If a fall class has an enforced prerequisite that is still in progress during the spring term, enrollment in that fall class is considered conditional. After the spring term ends, enrollment will be reviewed, and if the prerequisites have not been met, the course(s) will be dropped from the student’s schedule.

Note: Coursework completed at another institution will not be considered for conditional enrollment if it is not evaluated and posted to the student’s my.SDSU record by the time of the review process. Only coursework that has been completed and posted to the my.SDSU degree evaluation at the time of review will be used to determine the fulfillment of prerequisites.

For example, if a student is enrolled in RWS 100 in Fall 2022 and has conditional enrollment in RWS 200 for Spring 2023, the enrollment will be successful as long as the prerequisite is in progress. Since no warning message will be displayed, students should always verify course prerequisites before enrolling.

Students may only enroll in classes offered at their designated home campus. For example, if you are a student at the San Diego campus, you are only eligible to take classes that meet on the San Diego campus. If you attempt to enroll in a course at a different location, you will receive an enrollment error message, and your registration will not be processed.

To request enrollment in a course at a campus other than your home campus, please complete the Cross Campus Enrollment form.
