Please note that no override requests will be considered until May, 2024.

• Override requests are considered on a case-by-case basis. Requests from seniors or majors who need a course to graduate are prioritized. Requests are reviewed to ensure that prerequisites, classroom capacities, and Instructor workloads are considered.  Consequently, due to the number of students requesting overrides, an immediate response is not possible.
• P01 sections are restricted to students enrolled in Palmetto College. J01-J08 sections are restricted to other campuses and are not available to Columbia students.
• Please include all possible sections you can take.  If your override is declined for one section and no other sections are included in your request, no override can be given.
• Students must be advised before they can register for classes.
• Always click on the title of a course/section in Self Service Carolina to see specific notes.  The details there may explain why an error message appears when attempting to register for a specific section.
• Overrides are not issued when open seats are available in other sections for the same course.
• Overrides are not possible in the following sections or courses: H10, a section that meets with H10, H01, J10-20 Spanish, SPAN 304, SPAN 305, SPAN 316
