In order to meet the needs of an ever increasing number of statistics undergraduate and graduate students, our courses are typically limited to Statistics majors and Statistics graduate programs. Our restrictions are listed below. These are subject to change without notice, though we will try to keep it updated. Restrictions for a particular course or section can also be found in the Course Explorer, and also within the course's info within Enhanced Registration.

Graduate Section Restrictions

Course Enrollment Information

  • Availability: The removal of restrictions does not guarantee available seats in a course. If no seats are open, check other sections. Restrictions are removed manually and vary by section, so changes may not occur at the same time but are typically completed by noon on the specified date.

  • Cross-Listed Courses: For cross-listed courses (e.g., STAT 420/ASRM 450), only STAT-side restrictions are listed. Non-STAT sections are managed by their respective departments for their students (e.g., ASRM students for ASRM 450). Consult advisors if you face issues enrolling in cross-listed courses.

  • STAT Rubric Courses: Some courses under the STAT rubric are controlled by other departments (e.g., STAT 361 by CS, STAT 555 by Math). Refer to the Course Explorer for more information.

  • Section Capacities: Capacities may shift between subsections to accommodate needs, and changes are made without prior notice.

  • Restrictions: Most courses are initially restricted to Statistics students, with some cross-listed courses allowing specific programs. See the table above for details.

  • Level Restrictions: Undergraduates must register for sections labeled UG, and graduates for GR. Restrictions on levels are not lifted.

  • Overrides: No waitlists or overrides are provided for full or restricted courses, and instructors cannot authorize exceptions. Contact an advisor with concerns about course access.

  • Course Formats: Online courses are labeled accordingly in the schedule. Sections with listed times are synchronous; those marked "Arranged" are asynchronous. Consult the syllabus for course details.

Graduate Section Restrictions

Graduate Restrictions (only apply to courses with grad-specific GR sections or 500-level courses)
Notes: In this context, "Stat MS" refers to both our general MS and those in the Analytics concentration. "Stat Grads" refers to all graduate students in our MS, MS-Analytics, or PhD programs. Students in our Applied MS program will only be considered a "Stat Grad" by the system during the initial term of enrollment in our program.

For 400-level courses that also have undergraduate sections, be mindful that we may reassign unused graduate seats to undergraduate sections. Graduate students should choose their courses and register as soon as possible to avoid losing seats they assumed would be plentiful.
