Restrictions

Some courses are restricted to assure equity in scheduling for those students for whom these courses are required.  All restrictions are  based on a student's primary major only.  Second majors, minors and thematic sequences are not considered.

There are seven types of course restrictions.

College Restrictions
College Restrictions restrict courses to students admitted to a certain college (division), such as College of Arts and Science, School of Engineering and Applied Science, School of Education, Health and Society, School of Fine Arts, School of Interdisciplinary Studies or Richard T. Farmer School of Business. For example, a business course may be restricted to students in the School of Business.

Major Restrictions
Major Restrictions restrict courses to students with a specific primary major. Second majors, minors and thematic sequences are not considered. For example, an education course may be restricted to students admitted to a specific major.

Class Restrictions
Certain courses are restricted to students by classification, such as senior, junior, sophomore or freshmen. A student's classification is based on their earned credit hours, and does not include their courses in progress. For example, certain courses are restricted to senior only and other courses are restricted to freshmen.

Level Restrictions
Level Restrictions restrict courses by level.  Graduate courses are restricted to graduate level students.

Degree Restrictions
Degree Restrictions restrict courses to students admitted to a specific degree. Examples of degrees are Bachelor of Science in Business, Bachelor of Science in Education or Bachelor of Arts.

Program Restrictions
Program Restrictions restrict courses to students admitted to a specific program. This is similar to the degree restriction, and is used to distinguish pre-majors in programs. Examples of programs are BS BUS (Bachelor of Science in Business), BS (Bachelor of Science), or PRE BS BUS (Bachelor of Science in Business Pre-Major).

Campus Restrictions
Campus Restrictions restrict courses based on the campus of the student. For example, Luxembourg courses are restricted to Luxembourg students.
