Controlled access courses
Some graduate courses have controlled access and require department approval to take. Controlled access courses will be noted in the Graduate Course Guides of the Calendar|. Students may request approval to take restricted access courses through LFY. There is the opportunity to include a statement in support of your request. Once the request is submitted, the department will then make a decision. When that decision is made, you will be notified of the outcome via email. You then have 48 hours to register for that course.
Further information on controlled access courses is available here|.
Outside options
If you would like to register for an outside option, a course not offered within your programme's regulations, you can do so online. You are advised to contact the department offering the course to ensure that you are eligible to register for it as an outside option. Selecting it online is no guarantee that you will be allowed to attend this course.
