Thanks for using this form for an EE permission number. We will begin to issue permission numbers to undergraduate ECE students on the first or second day of registration. Please be patient because we work through the requests in the order in which they are received.
Note about course capacity: we do not issue permission numbers to override the course capacity (seats), especially for lab courses where we have a limited amount of equipment and space. The best thing to do is to put yourself on the waitlist if the course is full. If we know demand is higher than expected, we can either request a larger classroom for a lecture or potentially add another lab section if all labs for a course are full. The best way for us to understand demand for a class is for students to waitlist for full courses/labs.
Special instructions for 5xxx level EE classes:
Is your technical GPA 3.2 or higher? Fill out this form to receive a permission number.
Is your technical GPA below 3.2? Do not use this form. Contact the course instructor by email to request permission to enroll. If the instructor consents, then forward the instructor's email to Alexandria Anderson at ananders@umn.edu
