Registration
Psychology Class Permit Request
Students can complete this form if they want a 3000-level psychology class but do not have PSY 3100 (typically non-psy majors). This can also be used if a student needs PSY 3100 but the class is full. For all other PSY classes that are full, students need to add their names to the course online waitlist.
How to add your name to a class waitlist - Students can add their name to full courses that have a waitlist in AppalNet. They can add a full section to their planned schedule and use the drop-down to select “waitlist”. Students should check their email every morning and evening as they will be notified when a seat is open. They will have 18 hours from the time of that message to add the class. Failure to do so will result in them being removed from the waitlist. More instructions and an FAQ can be found here: https://registrar.appstate.edu/students/registration-classes/registration-waitlist
