Faculty Recruiting Support CICS

Summer 2024 Override Form

UNIVERSITY+ SESSION OVERRIDES 

Students who require special permission to enroll in CICS, COMPSCI, or INFO courses offered through University+ (Univ+ or U+ on SPIRE), formerly called University Without Walls:

  1. Please request an enrollment appointment on SPIRE. Navigate to Manage Classes > Enrollment Appointments > Summer/Winter/ND Enroll Appt from the top menu; then follow instructions on page. Students can request enrollment appointments beginning one week before registration opens for that term. 
  2. Then submit a CICS Override request

Overrides are not intended to bypass prerequisites. Students without the listed prerequisites on SPIRE must provide alternative prerequisites for review. 

Please note that the Summer/Winter University+ Override process is different than the Spring/Fall Override process.
