Registration Permit Override

  • Registration Permit Override – Placing a registration permit override in advance of student registration means a student can use myMU to register at their opening time of advance registration. No paper forms are needed and the student does not need to obtain various signatures; unless those signatures are needed for the override to be placed.
  • Saving Overrides – You need to develop a method of saving the overrides, whether it is saving the email and a screenshot of the override on your computer or printing them, or another method.
  • Steps to Place an Override
    1. Log in to Banner.
    2. Access the form SFASRPO – Student Registration Permit Override.
    3. Enter the MU ID number and term of the course for which an override is needed.
    4. Query the Permit types by clicking on the three dots “…” in the “Permit” field.
    5. Select the desired override by double-clicking the code name:
      Code Description
      DUPLICATE Student is requesting to take two of the exact same courses in the same semester.
      CLASSIFICA A course is restricted to Freshmen only but you are providing permission for a Sophomore to take the course.
      CLOSED The course is a zero enrollment course, or the course capacity is full and a student has received permission to take the course.
      COLLEGE There is a college restriction on the course so only those in a certain college can take the course.
      PREREQ An existing prerequisite on a course is being waived so a student can register for the course.
      COREQ An existing co-requisite on a course is being waived so a student can register for the course.
      MAJOR A student has received permission to take a course that has a major restriction on that course in Banner.
      DEPARTMENT A student has received permission to take a course that has a department restriction on that course in Banner.
    6. You then have the option to place the override on:
      Scope Description
      Specific CRN The student can register for that specific CRN only. The override applies to that CRN alone.
      Subject and Course Number The student can register for any section of that subject and course for which the override is granted.
      Subject, Course Number, and Section A specific section of a course.
    7. Enter the desired specific override based on what you are overriding: a specific CRN, a course, or a section of a course.
    8. Depending on how the course is set up, more than one override might be needed. For example, you may need to provide both a CLOSED override and a PREREQ override.
    9. You can view the student’s schedule on this form to see already registered courses.
    10. Save by pressing F10, or clicking “Save” in the lower right-hand side of the web page.
    11. If the override is for a specific CRN, make sure you provide the CRN to the student and let them know to NOT search for the course in myMU. They only need to enter the CRN on the registration page. The system will not allow them to search for a closed course and pull it over to register.
    12. Notify the student by email that they have an electronic override and can now register for the course in myMU.
    13. You are done!
