To serve students who are enrolled in our undergraduate and graduate programs of study, the Department of Statistics uses restrictions to help ensure those students can register for courses they need to complete their degree.

The removal of restrictions does not guarantee available seats in a course.

The removal of restrictions is a manual process that must be done section-by-section, during normal business hours. Therefore, it is impossible to state at exactly what time each restriction will be removed on the given dates.

We do not keep waitlists, nor do we provide overrides for full, closed, or restricted courses. Emails from students asking for overrides or a waitlist may not receive a response. Instructors do not have the ability to override restrictions or capacity.

Level Restrictions for STAT 4xx courses: Undergraduate students must register for sections with UG in the name (e.g., 1UG), and for STAT 430, the section ending in U (e.g., TEU). Graduate students must register for sections with GR in the name (e.g., 1GR), and for STAT 430, the section ending in G (e.g., TEG).

Undergraduate Restrictions

Students in the Statistics and Stat&CS majors should take advantage of their priority registration time tickets to register for courses in the major as early as possible.

Courses numbered above STAT 420 are restricted to students with Senior standing through the first week of registration.

Graduate Restrictions

"Stat MS" refers to our general MS and the Analytics and Applied Statistics concentrations. “Stat graduate students” includes these programs and the Statistics PhD program.

Statistics graduate students should enroll in courses as soon as possible. Seats in courses shared by graduate and undergraduate students may shift over time based on demand.
