Course Waiver Request Contacts

You need to make to make a Course Waiver Request IF you are seeking entry to a course section that is either full or that you do not meet the restriction(s) for.

Temporary Course Restrictions

The Office of Registrarial Services provides a Temporary Course Restrictions website at https://www.uoguelph.ca/registrar/courseselectionrestrict This is a listing of Temporary First-Year Restrictions as well as Other Priority Access Restrictions during the current Course Selection period that is updated as changes are made.

NOTE: Restrictions that are NOT temporary are listed against the course description for the specific course in the current Undergraduate Calendar at https://calendar.uoguelph.ca/undergraduate-calendar/

Temporary Course Restriction Contacts

Below are links to where departments post their own Temporary Course Restrictions information as well as contacts to speak to about obtaining approval for a Course Waiver Request(s). If there is no general department contact below you would contact the instructor directly (the University's Directory is at https://www.uoguelph.ca/directory/). If no instructor is listed (and there is no general department contact below) contact the department through their administrative staff to determine who to speak to about a waiver request (Administrative Contacts are listed at https://www.uoguelph.ca/uaic/admincontacts).
