Registration Questions

• What do I do if a class that I want is full?

  Your best option is to add yourself to the waitlist.

• How do I get a course override?

  Course overrides can only be granted by the department that holds the class. For instance, a course override for QUAN 2600 would be done by the economics department. A course override for BSAD 4780 can only be done by the Business Administration department.

  Overrides can be done when the registration system is not recognizing that you have the prerequisite for the class. Overrides for classes in the Goddard School are typically not done to allow students to take a class without the prerequisite.

  Department contacts:

  • Department of Business Administration & Marketing

  • Department of Economics

  • Department of Supply Chain & Management Information Systems

  • School of Accounting & Taxation

• Am I allowed to take a course and its prerequisite at the same time?

  Prerequisites must be taken before you take the course. The only way this can be overridden is by the department that holds the class.

Transfer Students/Outside Credits

  3. Once your credits are posted and have been articulated, contact our Advising Center to schedule an appointment. At that point, we will be able to give you an exact outline of which classes you will need.

  If you transfer classes that haven’t been articulated before, our departments must review the credits to decide how they will transfer. If you notice a class didn’t transfer, and you would like the department to look at it, contact the Advising Center to do a Transfer Summary.

• Can I take classes at another institution and transfer them to the Goddard School?

  Yes, however, you must get approval from the department before taking the class to ensure that it is our direct equivalent. You can view the online Transfer Guide to view possible equivalencies. If you have already attempted the class at 91¶ÌÊÓƵ, you cannot complete the course at another institution.

• I have AP or CLEP credits. How can I post those to my transcripts?

  You must fill out the online Application for Test Credit, provide 91¶ÌÊÓƵ with your scores, and pay a $10 processing fee in order to have your credits posted to your transcript.

• GSBE Transfer Petition Process

  In their articulation of transfer credits from other institutions of higher education, students may have courses that lack an equivalent at Weber State or do not transfer as courses within Goddard School of Business & Economics. The transfer course may be articulated as departmental elective credit (e.g., MATH 1XXX, PSY 1XXX) or general elective credit (e.g., ELEC 1XXX).  If you believe a course has been misevaluated, you can request a review of the articulation by completing a transfer petition.

  . Incomplete transfer petitions will not be accepted. The Goddard School of Business & Economics Academic Advisors will forward all completed petitions to the appropriate chair for review, the department chair makes a final decision about whether the transfer course satisfies the relevant course learning outcomes and should thereby satisfy the requirement at Weber State.   The Goddard School of Business & Economics Academic Advisor will make a CatTracks note on the ruling, and record the necessary exception, in the student’s official academic record.

Returning to School/Second Degrees

• I’m thinking of coming back to school. What should I be aware of?

  If you took classes in the Goddard School more than 10 years ago, there is a good chance you will have to repeat those courses. General education classes do not expire, but math classes may have expired, depending on when you took them.

  Contact an advisor to set up an appointment to review your credits. If it has been several years since you attended 91¶ÌÊÓƵ, you may need to contact 91¶ÌÊÓƵ 91¶ÌÊÓƵ at 801-626-6534 to reactivate your file.
