For more information, see Course Search & Enroll - Searching for Classes.

Save Course

error "Problems with course" and error "Sections not chosen" validation messages

When there is a reason why you can't go forward with enrollment, you'll see a validation message to help you make a change. Common situations include not meeting the requisites for the class, needing permission to take the class, or exceeding the number of credits allowed in the term.
The cart will also remind you to choose your section(s) for the course.

Add by class number

You can directly add classes to your cart if you have the five-digit class number.

1. In the Search tab, select "Add by class number" in the search panel.
2. In the pop-up box, type the five-digit class number.
3. Select "Check credits".
   
   
   
   
4. Select "Add to Cart".
   
   
   
   
5. Complete enrollment as described above.

Error message

If you try adding by class number and get an error message on the bottom of your screen that reads "That class number was not an enrollment class number", you either:

1. Mistyped the number (try again); or
2. Are using a class number that isn't the enrollment class number for that set of sections.
   
   

A class that has a lecture, a discussion, and a lab will have a different class number for each of those sections (see Example #1 below).
One of those class numbers works with the "Add by class number" feature. The other numbers don't.

Find enrollment class numbers in Course Search & Enroll

Open the class' section detail and look for the class numbers (listed under "Section Numbers").
If you want to jot down a class number for later reference, choose the last class number in the list.

• Example #1. Use LAB - 18047 as the enrollment class number for this set of CHEM 103 classes:
  
  
  
  
• Example #2. Use LEC - 27735 as the enrollment class number for NURSING 323, which has a lecture but not discussions or labs.
