How to Obtain a Special Permission Number

It is often possible to enroll in a closed section of a course offered by the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science if you take the following steps:

  1.  Attend the first class.

  2. After the first class, tell the instructor that you would like to enroll in the course.  Also, let the instructor know if you are a graduating senior.

  3. If there is room in the class the instructor may choose to give you a special permission number.  PLEASE NOTE:  THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE GIVEN A SPECIAL PERMISSION NUMBER.

  4. Take the special permission number to the Rutgers Registrar’s Office located in Blumenthal Hall, 3rd floor to enroll in the course.
