Availability of Courses
The University's colleges determine which of their courses will be available to students in Open Studies. Generally,
PAWS registration access is limited to numerous 100 level and 200 level courses, though some 300 and 400 level courses may sometimes be available. Where upper-year courses are not available through PAWS, Open Studies students may go to the appropriate departmental office to seek permission to register. Off-campus students should call Open Studies Advising for information on how to access such permissions.
Even in the case of receiving permission to register for certain courses, students must also meet course prerequisite requirements or have obtained a prerequisite waiver.
