Instructions for Submitting Requests for Course Substitutions & Waivers Online
Course Substitution and Waivers Portal
If you need to initiate a course substitution or waiver, please contact your Academic Advisor. All requests will need to be submitted by your academic advisor through the online portal to officially petition for review of your degree requirements.
Your Academic Advisor will follow these 4 easy steps (taking course substitution for example) to initiate the process:
- Step 1: Fill in the basic information
- Step 2: Enter course substitution
- Step 3: Upload documents (Optional)
- Step 4: Verify department chair or designee and submit
After the request is submitted, students will be able to see the request by logging into the Course Substitution and Waivers Portal. The request will be displayed under “My Requests” Tab with all the detailed information, including the full workflow path. The current pending approver can be viewed from the View Detail page.
Waiver requests are similar to that of course substitutions with a little variation, but can easily be completed following the same steps.
